Rent & eviction protection

Is 60-62 Pearl 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 1908

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.

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 three-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 60-62 Pearl Street in Mission Dolores, owned by Joshua & Chau Koltun Tr, has undergone several significant renovations and improvements since its construction in 1908. Most notably, in 2020, substantial work was completed on both units 60A and 62, including a lightwell addition and comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodels, with associated plumbing and electrical upgrades costing approximately $140,000. Earlier improvements were documented in 2017 with kitchen remodels in both units, and the building has seen consistent maintenance of its infrastructure including electrical upgrades to 200-amp service with four meters, fire safety improvements with sprinkler system installations, and plumbing updates including new sewer lateral work and water heater installation.

The building has maintained relatively good compliance with safety requirements, with past violations from 2004 (now resolved) primarily related to safety equipment placement and identification requirements, including fire extinguisher tagging and gas meter instructions. Recent infrastructure improvements demonstrate ongoing maintenance attention, including multiple kitchen remodels, bathroom updates, and safety system enhancements. While there have been some external maintenance issues noted through 311 calls in the vicinity, these primarily relate to street cleaning and sidewalk maintenance rather than building conditions. The property's planning records indicate approvals for various improvements including a rear yard deck/stair modification and lightwell infill work, suggesting proper adherence to regulatory processes for major alterations.

Risk rating

How 60-62 Pearl 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
74thpercentile

Out of 799 buildings in this neighborhood, 208 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
