Is 2843-2845 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.
Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.
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.
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.

The two-unit, two-story mixed-use building at 2843-2845 Geary Blvd, owned by Njbhp LLC, has undergone significant changes since 2020, most notably converting from a restaurant to a cannabis retail dispensary on the ground floor while maintaining the residential unit above. This $400,000 project included adding a deck to the residential unit and underwent several permit modifications in 2022, including changes to stair access and heating system installations. The building has experienced various maintenance and compliance issues since late 2021, including violations related to smoke detector requirements, heat provision, and multiple permits needed for work done on the property. A concerning pattern of unpermitted work has emerged, with active complaints regarding unauthorized construction (April 2024) and installation of roll-down metal doors (October 2022). The rear yard's second structure has generated particular scrutiny, with a 2021 complaint identifying numerous potential life safety concerns including questionable occupancy status, unapproved electrical and plumbing systems, and inadequate fire safety features.

How 2843-2845 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

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