Rent & eviction protection

Is 2833-2835 Taraval 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 1957
2 or more units

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 1957
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-unit residential building at 2833-2835 Taraval Street in San Francisco's Outer Parkside neighborhood is a two-story structure built in 1957, currently owned by Linda C. Kwan. The building has undergone several significant improvements and maintenance work since 2005, including a major electrical service upgrade in 2005 to a 200-amp system with three meters and subpanels, and comprehensive renovations in 2006 that converted a family room into two bedrooms and a bathroom on the ground floor. These renovations also included the replacement of rear stairs and work to address dry rot and stucco issues on the rear exterior wall, though there was one instance of a complaint in 2006 regarding unauthorized work on the staircase and porch that was not resolved until 2012.

More recent maintenance activities include ongoing management of tree maintenance requirements, with two tree-related service requests in late 2024, and several 311 calls in 2022 related to waste management issues such as improperly stored toters and general cleaning needs on the street. The building experienced a sewage backup issue in January 2023 that was subsequently resolved. Historical records from the late 1990s show some previous work including reroofing, though this permit appears to have expired. The property has experienced periodic exterior maintenance needs as evidenced by the various permits and service requests, but most major systems and structural elements appear to have been properly addressed through the various permits and improvements made over the past two decades.

Risk rating

How 2833-2835 Taraval 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
82ndpercentile

Out of 207 buildings in this neighborhood, 37 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
