Rent & eviction protection

Is 262-264 Collingwood 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 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 262-264 Collingwood Street property is a two-unit, single-story multi-family residential building located in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood, built in 1900 and currently owned by Alexander F & Samantha Woolf. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past decades, with the most recent major renovation occurring in late 2022 involving a bathroom remodel that included plumbing updates, electrical work, and new fixtures, at a cost of $15,000. Other notable renovations include a complete reroofing project in 2000 (cost: $4,300), a kitchen renovation in 1995, and a cancelled electrical service upgrade in 2003.

The property has experienced recurring sewer-related issues in 2023, with five documented sewage backup incidents between January and October, all involving 4-inch sewer vent problems, though all were ultimately resolved through field work or service requests. Infrastructure concerns were also noted in early 2023, including two reports of sidewalk defects involving lifted sections, one of which included an unauthorized toilet placement that required contractor intervention. More recently, the property is facing an overgrown tree maintenance issue reported in November 2024. While the building has maintained active permits for various improvements, including the recent bathroom remodel, the pattern of sewage-related incidents suggests ongoing infrastructure challenges.

Risk rating

How 262-264 Collingwood 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
81stpercentile

Out of 1278 buildings in this neighborhood, 243 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.

Neighborhood location

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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