Rent & eviction protection

Is 327-329 Crestmont Dr 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 1963
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.

Built 1963
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 Jones Family Trust-owned duplex at 327-329 Crestmont Drive is a three-story multi-family residential building located in the Forest Knolls neighborhood, constructed in 1963. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with the most notable recent renovation occurring in 2014, when 17 windows and two French doors were replaced with energy-efficient Anderson wood-clad units, including fiberglass wood-clad egress windows in the bedrooms, at a cost of $42,812. Other maintenance recorded includes a water heater replacement in 2015 and a roofing project initiated in 2001, though the latter's permit status is listed as expired with a cost of $17,319.

The building's location has experienced some minor neighborhood incidents over the years, predominantly related to street infrastructure. There have been three documented cases of burnt-out streetlights on Crestmont Drive (in 2010, 2013, and 2014), all of which were promptly resolved within a few days of reporting, with new 70W lamps installed. Two parking-related incidents were reported near the property, including an illegal parking complaint in 2021 involving a Revel scooter (which could not be validated upon police response) and an abandoned pickup truck report in 2018 (resolved when the vehicle was gone upon inspection). The building's maintenance record suggests regular upkeep of essential systems, with particular attention to window upgrades for improved energy efficiency and safety compliance.

Risk rating

How 327-329 Crestmont Dr'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
90thpercentile

Out of 50 buildings in this neighborhood, 5 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.

Neighborhood location

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

Construction spend, owner's portfolio

Estimated permit value across all of this owner's buildings.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.
