Lone Mountain, SF 94118 1089032 3 units · 2 fl · 1923

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 3015-3017 Geary Blvd 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 1923

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

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 1923
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 3015-3017 Geary Blvd is a two-story multi-family residential building with three units, constructed in 1923, containing both residential and commercial spaces. The building's recent history has been marked by significant changes to its usage and space configuration. Most notably, in 2020 a substantial renovation was proposed for Unit A (2nd floor) to convert commercial space to residential use, including new kitchen and bathroom facilities, though this permit status is currently listed as filed. Between 2011 and 2016, the building underwent several transitions regarding its commercial space, including the establishment and subsequent closure of various massage-related businesses, with the most recent attempt at legitimization in 2016 resulting in closure due to multiple violations, which established a three-year prohibition on future massage establishment approvals at the site.

The building has experienced periodic maintenance and infrastructure upgrades, including a significant rear building remodel in 2011, front entrance stair repairs in 2010, and various plumbing improvements including gas pipe and water pipe installations in 2013-2015. Historical plumbing complaints from 2000-2002 indicate past issues with sewage overflow, though these appear to have been promptly addressed. The property has undergone several commercial use changes over the years, including an unsuccessful attempt to establish an acupuncture clinic and multiple periods of massage establishment operations. The building's exterior and surrounding area have been subject to various maintenance issues in recent months, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding graffiti, parking violations, and debris, though these are primarily related to public space rather than building conditions.

Risk rating

How 3015-3017 Geary Blvd'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
16thpercentile

Out of 519 buildings in this neighborhood, 436 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
