Rent & eviction protection

Is 350-352 Divisadero 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 1908

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 1908
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 two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 350-352 Divisadero St, built in 1908 and currently owned by 350 Divisadero Street Trust, has undergone significant changes over the past several years. Most notably, in 2022, the ground floor underwent a major transformation from a martial arts school to a dental office through a $300,000 renovation that included new partitions, reception areas, operatories, sinks, and various supporting facilities. This project was accompanied by comprehensive electrical and plumbing upgrades, including the installation of multiple sinks, toilets, and medical equipment connections. Between 2023 and 2024, additional work was performed on the building's rear deck, including revisions to provide new stairs, railings, and foundation work, with the most recent permits showing completion of deck modifications and the installation of two split systems.

The building has experienced several maintenance and compliance issues over its history, particularly between 2008 and 2012, including incidents of water damage, roof leaks, and problems with disabled access compliance. Notable violations from 2011-2012 related to non-compliance with accessible entrance requirements were eventually abated. Recent maintenance activities, including deck repairs and utility upgrades, suggest ongoing property upkeep, though a construction noise complaint was filed in October 2023. Historical complaints indicate previous concerns about sound insulation during its use as a gym, with some tenant complaints about noise disturbance. The building's utilities have undergone several updates, including a 400-amp to 200-amp electrical service revision and various plumbing improvements, including gas heater replacements and bathroom installations. While there were historical issues with water service in 2005, these appear to have been addressed in subsequent years. The property's commercial space has seen multiple transitions, including a period as a medical cannabis dispensary, and most recently as a dental office, with various permits filed and completed for each use change.

Risk rating

How 350-352 Divisadero 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

Grade A–B — Low risk

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

Grade C — Moderate risk

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

Grade D–F — High risk

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