Rent & eviction protection

Is 1322-1324 Cole 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 1909
2 or more units

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 1909
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 residential building at 1322-1324 Cole Street, located in the Parnassus/Ashbury Heights neighborhood, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1909 and currently owned by Libadia Iluminada. The most significant recent improvement to the property was completed in 2019, involving the installation of 13 new Andersen fibrex double-hung windows (12 double-hung and 1 casement) to replace outdated metal frame windows, a project valued at $32,891. The building's maintenance history shows earlier work from 1991-1994, including bathroom and kitchen repairs, wall and ceiling painting, and roof work, though those permits have since expired.

The property has experienced various maintenance and environmental issues in the surrounding area over the past two years, though none appear to directly impact the building's structural integrity or resident safety. Recent incidents include multiple reports of garbage and debris on the street (October and December 2024), a resolved case of offensive graffiti (September 2023), and a general sewer issues report that was accepted (March 2023). Other incidents, such as tree damage (April 2024) and parking enforcement matters (October 2021), were successfully resolved and appear to have been primarily street-related issues rather than building-specific problems. The most recent Rent Board interaction (June 2024) indicated that the caller had a homeowner exemption, resulting in a waived RB fee.

Risk rating

How 1322-1324 Cole 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
92ndpercentile

Out of 526 buildings in this neighborhood, 42 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
