Rent & eviction protection

Is 274-276 Roosevelt 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.

Built before 1979
Built 1900
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 1900
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 274-276 Roosevelt Way is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Buena Vista Park neighborhood and owned by Rector Annelise. Built in 1900, this flats/duplex-style building has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues in recent years. Most notably, in early 2025, hazardous conditions were reported involving blocked water heater vents causing CO2 leakage, defective electrical wiring, and other maintenance concerns in a reportedly vacant lower unit. In March 2022, multiple violations were documented regarding inadequate heating systems, though these were abated by mid-April 2022. The building has a history of plumbing and maintenance challenges, including a significant sewage issue and rat infestation complaint in September 2021. Earlier structural concerns were addressed in 2005 when temporary shoring work involving underpinning pits was completed at a cost of $12,960.

The property's exterior and infrastructure have also required attention, with various city services responding to issues such as sidewalk repairs (2006-2007), tree root damage (ongoing as of 2024), and street light maintenance (2013). While many of these external issues have been resolved, they indicate ongoing challenges with the building's surroundings and infrastructure. Historical records from 2010-2015 show various minor municipal service calls for graffiti removal, tree maintenance, and surface cleaning, suggesting routine urban maintenance needs in the area.

Risk rating

How 274-276 Roosevelt 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.
