Rent & eviction protection

Is 2007 Golden Gate Ave 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

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 three-unit residential building at 2007 Golden Gate Avenue, owned by Deborah Briant, has undergone significant recent improvements and maintenance work, particularly throughout 2022-2023. The property, constructed in 1900, has seen substantial unit upgrades including kitchen and bathroom remodels in multiple units (lower and middle), exterior repairs, and plumbing updates including shower pan installations and a sewer lateral replacement. Between August-December 2022 alone, approximately $250,000 was invested in various improvements across the three units, focusing on modernization and maintenance.

The building has a history of addressing safety and maintenance issues, with records showing attention to exterior stairs and structural elements. A notable cluster of violations in 2016 was promptly addressed, including fire safety concerns such as carbon monoxide alarms, fire extinguishers, and sprinkler system repairs. Earlier violations from 2004 regarding stair repairs and safety systems were also resolved. Historical records indicate the building experienced fire damage in 1993 that required significant repairs. In recent years, there have been minimal complaints or violations, with the most recent issues being routine maintenance matters such as garbage receptacle placement in 2023 and some exterior graffiti. The property has also been subject to scrutiny regarding short-term rentals, with a violation case being closed after enforcement action in 2017. While the building shows evidence of regular maintenance and upgrades, its historical records suggest ongoing attention to safety compliance and infrastructure maintenance has been necessary throughout its history.

Risk rating

How 2007 Golden Gate Ave'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
92ndpercentile

Out of 797 buildings in this neighborhood, 64 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
