Rent & eviction protection

Is 1300 Shrader 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 1913
2 or more units
3 units
Property type
Multi-Family Residential
Zoning
RH2
Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

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 1913
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 property at 1300 Shrader Street, owned by Chabad Of Cole Valley, is a three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1913, located in the Parnassus/Ashbury Heights neighborhood. The building has undergone significant and continuous renovations over the past decade, with the most recent work in 2023 including kitchen modifications in Unit 1, electrical upgrades, and window repairs. Major improvements have been made throughout the property, including the addition of a half bathroom in 2020-2021, kitchen remodels, bathroom renovations, and various electrical and plumbing upgrades. The building has a documented history of addressing fire code violations, with multiple citations between 2018 and 2024, though many have been marked as abated. A notable cluster of complaints regarding shared spaces and fire violations occurred between 2019-2023, requiring attention to safety compliance. The property's documentation shows previous issues with unauthorized conversions and improperly obtained permits in 2006, which were subsequently addressed. Recent maintenance includes work on roofing and garage areas, suggesting ongoing upkeep of the building's infrastructure.

The building's recent history (2023-2024) shows active management with multiple completed permits for interior improvements and safety upgrades, though some permits have expired or are pending resolution, such as the mini-split installation from August 2023. Several 311 calls have been recorded in 2024 regarding various issues, including graffiti removal and a sewage backup, all of which were resolved. The property maintains three PG&E meter panels, with recent work showing upgrades to 100-amp service. Historical records indicate a conversion from a multi-family dwelling plus store to its current configuration, with careful attention to maintaining legal compliance since the 2006 violations. The building's ongoing renovations and improvements suggest active property management, though the repeated fire code violations indicate an area requiring continued attention to safety compliance.

Risk rating

How 1300 Shrader 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
23rdpercentile

Out of 526 buildings in this neighborhood, 405 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
