Rent & eviction protection

Is 2515-2519 Post 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 before 1979
Built 1900
2 or more units
3 units
Property type
Multi-Family Residential

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

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.

15+ years since occupancy
Built 1900
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 property at 2515-2519 Post Street is a three-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1900 in the Lower Pacific Heights neighborhood, currently owned by Ume-ukeje Victor. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and renovation projects over the years, with the most recent major work including a 2024 sewer issue resolution and ongoing concerns about mold and mildew documented in late 2024. Historical records show a pattern of structural and safety concerns in the late 1990s and early 2000s, including multiple violations in 2002 related to egress obstruction, weatherproofing, garbage receptacles, and fire safety issues, though these were abated by September 2004. The building has received various upgrades over the years, including a 2006 deck and stair repair project, 2002 reroofing work, and comprehensive unit renovations (though some permits expired).

Recent records (2023-2024) show ongoing issues primarily related to external factors, including multiple parking violations and sidewalk blockages near the property, while there was one documented gas leak incident (no injuries reported). A 2019 complaint regarding security and lighting concerns was filed but marked as not active. The property has generally been responsive to repair needs, with documented work addressing issues such as decking problems, roofing concerns, and unit-specific maintenance. While historical records show significant habitation concerns in the past, particularly in the 1990s and early 2000s, current issues appear to be primarily related to external enforcement matters and occasional maintenance needs, with fewer documented safety violations in recent years.

Risk rating

How 2515-2519 Post 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.

What the score means for you

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
40thpercentile

Out of 670 buildings in this neighborhood, 402 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
