Rent & eviction protection

Is 2726-2728 Clement 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 1923
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 1923
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 2726-2728 Clement Street is a three-story multi-family residential building located in the Central Richmond neighborhood, containing two units and built in 1923. The building has undergone several significant renovations and faced multiple challenges over recent years. In 2017, multiple violations were filed regarding safety concerns, including issues with secondary stairs, hot water supply, fire hazards, and smoke detection systems, which were marked as "Not active" by July 2019 following remediation work. The building underwent substantial improvements in 2018-2019, including kitchen and bathroom remodels, electrical panel upgrades, and insulation installation, with associated plumbing and electrical work completed at costs exceeding $150,000.

In 2020, two code enforcement complaints were filed regarding building neglect, though these have since been resolved. Earlier complaints from 2013-2016 addressed various concerns including alleged over-occupancy and unauthorized garage conversions. Historical documents from 1993 and 2002 show previous roofing work, and street space permits were issued in 2018-2019. The property has experienced recurring parking-related issues in the surrounding area, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls between 2018-2022. A planning record confirms that the building is a two-unit family dwelling with proper access to required open spaces, with no loss of housing units or planning code violations.

Risk rating

How 2726-2728 Clement 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
14thpercentile
