Rent & eviction protection

Is 2813 Bush St rent-controlled?

San Francisco's Rent Ordinance caps rent increases and provides eviction protection for most residential units built before 1979 with 2+ units. Here's how this building scores.

Built 1890

Statewide backstop · AB 1482

California Tenant Protection Act of 2019

Even when a building isn't covered by local rent stabilization, the statewide Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482) may still apply. It caps annual rent increases and requires the landlord to state a legal reason to end most tenancies.

Built 1890
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
Local rent control likely takes priority. This building appears to fall under the local ordinance above, which is stronger than AB 1482. Where a local just-cause ordinance applies, its rules govern instead of the state cap.

AB 1482 does not apply to single-family homes and condos unless owned by a corporation, REIT, or an LLC with a corporate member; to owner-occupied duplexes; or to deed-restricted affordable housing. The Act is in effect until January 1, 2030. Not legal advice — see the California landlord–tenant guide.

Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2813 Bush Street in Lower Pacific Heights is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1890, currently owned by the Suter Family Trust. The property has undergone several significant renovations and improvements over the past two decades, with the most substantial work occurring between 2018-2023. A major permitted project in 2018 valued at $390,000 included a horizontal rear yard addition, master bathroom remodels, and kitchen extensions, with subsequent revisions filed in September 2023 to modify the scope of work. Earlier improvements in 2006-2007 focused on structural enhancements, including new footings and plywood walls at the rear ground floor, deck rebuilding, and electrical upgrades for kitchen and bathroom renovations.

The building's recent history shows regular maintenance and improvements, though there have been numerous parking-related issues recorded in the vicinity. Between 2020 and 2024, there were multiple reports of parking violations, including vehicles parking on the sidewalk and blocking driveways, with several citations issued. Other exterior maintenance concerns included an open sidewalk defect case from January 2019 due to tree root lifting. The property has received appropriate permits for all major works, including street space permits and electrical upgrades, with all past major construction work marked as complete. The building's records show responsible property management with proper permitting and inspection processes being followed for substantial renovations and structural improvements.

Risk rating

How 2813 Bush St's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of SF DBI inspection data — notice of violation filings, complaint history, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that DBI inspectors will issue a Notice of Violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.
