Rent & eviction protection

Is 652 Stanyan 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 before 1979
Built 1928
2 or more units

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.

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, 15-unit apartment building at 652 Stanyan St in the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood, owned by Jeffrey Litke Revocable Trust, was constructed in 1928 and has undergone various modifications and improvements over the years. Recent telecommunications activity includes temporary T-Mobile installations in 2022 and 2019 for special events, while AT&T proposed rooftop antenna co-locations were filed but subsequently declared canceled. The building faced significant maintenance issues in September 2019, resulting in multiple housing violations that were all abated by January 2020, including problems with fire proofing, fire escape ladders, emergency lighting, smoke/carbon monoxide detection systems, and the need for lead paint remediation.

Prior to the 2019 violations, the building had several infrastructure updates, including boiler replacement and plumbing work in 2009, and electrical modifications in 2011. Historical concerns include various complaints from 1998-2001 regarding illegal structures, unauthorized repairs, and parking lot issues, all of which were resolved. The building has experienced three fire alarm system complaints (2007, 2019, and 2021) with varying outcomes, and recent activity between 2023-2024 has primarily involved street-level maintenance issues such as graffiti removal, illegal parking concerns, and other public works matters, with most cases being resolved. The property's documented history shows a pattern of periodic maintenance and compliance issues, particularly regarding fire safety systems and telecommunications equipment installations, but recent years have shown fewer building-specific violations.

Risk rating

How 652 Stanyan 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
4thpercentile

Out of 581 buildings in this neighborhood, 558 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.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.
