Rent & eviction protection

Is 203-205 Corbett 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 1900

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 203-205 Corbett Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in Corona Heights, built in 1900 and currently owned by Yoshizaki Aya. The building underwent significant renovations in 2017, including a kitchen and bathroom remodel, window replacement, and electrical upgrades, though this work was initially performed without proper permits, resulting in multiple complaints from tenants between August 21-28, 2017. These complaints were related to unauthorized remodeling work in the lower unit, including electrical work and plumbing modifications, which were eventually addressed through proper permitting channels. The building has a documented history of maintenance issues, including a 2012 complaint about water drainage problems and debris in gutters, and a 2010 complaint regarding unpermitted window replacement.

More recently, the property has experienced a variety of municipal service calls, including flooding issues in April 2022, transportation complaints, and various street cleaning matters throughout 2023-2024. A tenant buyout was recorded on September 30, 2024, involving 2 tenants and totaling $4,870. The building's electrical infrastructure was improved in 2004 with the conversion from overhead to underground service, and some historical permit activity indicates past roof work in 1996, though this permit expired. The property has relatively few current violations or open cases, suggesting improved compliance with building regulations since the 2017 permit issues were resolved.

Risk rating

How 203-205 Corbett 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
71stpercentile

Out of 348 buildings in this neighborhood, 101 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.

Building age

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

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.
