Lake Street, SF 94121 1384020 4 units · 2 fl · 1927

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 2323-2327 Lake 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 1927

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 1927
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 4-unit multi-family residential building at 2323-2327 Lake Street, located in the Lake - The Presidio neighborhood, is a two-story apartment building constructed in 1927 and currently owned by Parineh Austiaj & O'brien P. The property has undergone significant renovations and improvements over the past few years, with major work occurring between 2018-2020 including a completed re-roofing project ($55,000) in 2019, comprehensive electrical upgrades including rewiring and meter installation, and plumbing work involving new bathroom installations and boiler systems. In 2019, there was substantial interior remodeling on the 3rd floor, including bedroom and bathroom renovations, and revisions to relocate kitchen and dining areas. The building has also pursued adding an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) as part of the 2017 ordinance, with applications filed in May 2019.

Recent maintenance and resident concerns include two sewage backup incidents reported in June 2024 from the side sewer vent, which were resolved by PUC Sewer Operations. The building has undergone routine safety inspections by Housing Inspection Services, with records dating back to 1997 showing regular compliance checks. While there was one complaint in 2019 regarding paint chips and debris affecting adjacent properties, this appears to be the only documented tenant-related concern in recent years. The property has seen consistent investment in infrastructure, including a 200-amp service upgrade in 2007, and multiple unit-specific renovations in 2008-2009. Recent activity at the property has primarily involved parking-related issues outside the building, with multiple reports in 2024 regarding sidewalk parking violations, though these are external to the building itself.

Risk rating

How 2323-2327 Lake 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
15thpercentile

Out of 660 buildings in this neighborhood, 561 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.

Building size

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

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.
