Rent & eviction protection

Is 319-323 Willard 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.

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 1907
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-story multi-family residential building at 319-323 Willard Street in Lone Mountain, owned by Fain Alexander & Yelizaveta, contains 4 units and was constructed in 1907. The property has undergone several renovations, with the most significant being a $20,000 kitchen remodel in 2018 that included cabinet replacement, electrical work, and plumbing updates, though these permits have since expired. Historical records show the building faced multiple safety and maintenance issues in the early 2000s, including violations related to fire safety equipment, smoke detectors, emergency exits, and wood stairs/decks, all of which were abated by June 2004. There were also heating system issues documented in 1995-1998, including complaints of inadequate heat and no heat conditions, though these were resolved.

More recently, there has been a pattern of waste management issues near the property, with nine reports of abandoned furniture and debris on the surrounding streets and sidewalks between May 2022 and January 2025, though all were resolved through various cleanup services. The most recent violation was for a blocking driveway complaint in July 2022, which was not enforced. The building's permit history shows regular maintenance and improvements, including a 2015 street space permit and a 2002 kitchen cabinet and shower renovation. While there were multiple safety concerns in the early 2000s, there have been no recorded building violations or safety inspections since 2004, suggesting an improved condition over the past two decades, though the recent pattern of debris and waste issues near the property is notable.

Risk rating

How 319-323 Willard 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
29thpercentile

Out of 519 buildings in this neighborhood, 368 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.
