Rent & eviction protection

Is 3719-3721 Market 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 1958
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 1958
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 3719-3721 Market Street in Noe Valley is a 2-story, 3-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1958, currently owned by the Jjt Family Trust. The building has faced significant code compliance issues, with persistent active violations dating back to December 2017, including concerns about unapproved unit conversions, safety equipment, and fire separation between units. These violations were documented during inspections identifying multiple code infractions such as unauthorized wiring and plumbing modifications, lack of approved heating systems in living spaces, and concerns about occupancy violations. The building underwent several repairs in recent years, including a corrected code violation regarding dryer vents in 2019, replacement of vinyl siding and moisture barrier in response to complaints, and re-roofing work completed in 2015. Between 2022 and 2025, there have been multiple maintenance issues logged through 311 calls, including two sewer-related incidents (including one sewage backup in December 2023), flooding, and sidewalk concerns, though most were resolved through appropriate city interventions. A cluster of fire safety-related violations from 2017, including missing fire extinguishers and smoke/CO alarm issues, were addressed through permits, though at the time of this report, two complaints from 2017 regarding fire safety and unit conversion violations remained active with a director hearing scheduled in October 2019. The building's documented history includes a cooking-related fire incident, though no civilian injuries were reported.

Risk rating

How 3719-3721 Market 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
48thpercentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 977 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
