Rent & eviction protection

Is 2300 22Nd Ave 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 1929
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.

Built 1929
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 2300 22nd Avenue building is a 2-story, 6-unit multi-family residential structure built in 1929 and currently owned by the Cynthia Abrams Revoc Trust. This property has undergone significant safety and modernization improvements in recent years, with substantial focus on fire safety systems. Most notably, in late 2023 and early 2024, the building received comprehensive fire alarm upgrades and fire sprinkler system modifications, including the installation of an automatic fire sprinkler system ($25,100) and related underground work. The building's electrical system is also being upgraded, with a 400-amp service installation currently in progress that includes 9 meters. The property has an active unresolved violation regarding mandatory soft-story seismic retrofitting (filed May 2020), though earlier work was completed in 2017 under a separate permit ($80,000).

Recent improvements to individual units include substantial renovations to Units 5 and 6 in 2021-2022, featuring kitchen and bathroom remodels, new electrical systems, and plumbing updates. The building underwent roof replacement in 2022 ($36,400) and various infrastructure improvements, including new underground piping installations in 2023 ($25,100). While most building violations from 2001 were resolved by 2002, there was a recent complaint in September 2023 regarding construction work and exposed materials, though this was promptly addressed within two days. The property maintains an active status for garbage and debris management in the surrounding area, with several 311 calls recorded between 2024-2025, primarily related to street cleaning and sidewalk maintenance issues, though these are external to the building itself. The building's current configuration and permitted modifications include plans for three new accessory dwelling units (ADUs) at the first floor, though this has been subject to multiple permit revisions and modifications.

Risk rating

How 2300 22Nd Ave'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
7thpercentile

Out of 255 buildings in this neighborhood, 237 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
