Rent & eviction protection

Is 315-319 Lincoln Way 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.

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.

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 6-unit multi-family residential building at 315-319 Lincoln Way in the Inner Sunset, owned by the John P Oreilly Family Trust, is a three-story structure built in 1906. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, most notably completing a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $60,000, achieving full compliance with seismic safety requirements as a Tier 3 building. The property experienced a series of maintenance and safety issues in late 2017, when multiple violations were recorded relating to plumbing, electrical systems, interior surfaces, and safety features, including problems with tub/shower repairs, electrical outlets, floor coverings, and smoke/carbon monoxide alarm compliance - all of which were addressed and abated by December 2017.

Recent history shows various minor maintenance and operational work, including multiple street space permits in early 2019 (each costing $1) and the completion of a reroofing project in 1998. The building underwent several routine inspections between 2003 and 2017, with the most significant issues occurring in 2017. Area residents have reported multiple noise disturbances in recent years, particularly in 2021 when there were several complaints about amplified sound electronics, though these were generally recorded as informational reports rather than formal violations. The property has had some interaction with local services for various issues including graffiti removal (2020), illegal parking (2020), and a recent dog barking complaint (2023), though these are primarily neighborhood-related concerns rather than internal building issues.

Risk rating

How 315-319 Lincoln Way'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
26thpercentile

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 1105 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
