Rent & eviction protection

Is 2650 Irving 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 1949
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.

15+ years since occupancy
Built 1949
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-story, 4-unit residential building at 2650 Irving Street in the Central Sunset neighborhood, currently owned by Kathmandu LLC, was constructed in 1949 and has undergone several significant renovations over the past few decades. Most notably, in 2020, two of the four apartments (Units 1 and 4) underwent comprehensive renovations including kitchen and bathroom updates, replacement of knob and tube wiring, and electrical system improvements, with the work being properly documented through building, plumbing, and electrical permits totaling approximately $70,000. A significant infrastructure upgrade occurred in 2017 with the replacement of the sewer lateral and house trap, and in 2007, 39 windows were replaced with more energy-efficient units. The building has been regularly inspected through routine housing inspections, with one particularly notable inspection in 2002 revealing multiple safety issues including fire safety concerns (fire extinguisher maintenance, egress obstruction, combustible storage) and lead paint hazards, though all violations were abated by July 15, 2002.

Recent maintenance records from 2024 indicate ongoing attention to building infrastructure, with multiple reports regarding street lighting issues and sidewalk maintenance, though some issues remain open as of January 2025. The property has shown consistent investment in maintenance and upgrades, with no active violations or complaints on record since 2020. External factors affecting the property have primarily been related to public infrastructure (sidewalks, street lighting) rather than building-specific issues. The building's documented history shows a pattern of regular upkeep and modernization, particularly focusing on electrical systems, plumbing infrastructure, and unit-specific improvements, suggesting an ongoing commitment to maintaining the property's habitability standards.

Risk rating

How 2650 Irving 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
50thpercentile

Out of 814 buildings in this neighborhood, 407 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.

DBI tenant complaints (past 7 years)

Formal complaints tenants filed with DBI about this building over 7 years.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.
