Rent & eviction protection

Is 33 Elgin Park 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.

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

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

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 10-unit, three-story apartment building at 33 Elgin Park, owned by Stacey Christine Scholten, was constructed in 1963 and has completed its mandatory seismic retrofit as a Tier 3 soft-story building with work valued at $60,000. The property has undergone several significant maintenance projects, including a complete re-roofing in December 2023 costing $10,000, and has addressed multiple fire safety violations in 2024 related to fire escape maintenance, blocked exits, and extinguishers. The building has a documented history of inspections and complaints, with the most serious issues occurring in 2001 when residents reported no heat, insufficient hot water, plumbing problems, and pest concerns, all of which were promptly addressed.

Recent fire safety violations from 2024 included blocked exits and maintenance issues that were subsequently corrected, though fines were issued for fire escape maintenance violations. The building experienced multiple compliance issues in 2023 related to safety equipment and maintenance requirements, including problems with the fire escape drop ladder, gas utility shutoff tools, and various safety documentation that have since been addressed. Historical records show earlier concerns including water issues and multiple fire safety compliance matters. A possible illegal short-term rental complaint from 2014 and previous roof work in 1994 and dry rot repairs in 2001 are also noted in the building's history. The property has had regular inspections and maintenance, with most recent violations being resolved through appropriate corrective actions, though some required permits for certain repairs were not obtained. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to street-level issues such as garbage and encampments in the vicinity of the building, which are external to the property's management responsibilities.

Risk rating

How 33 Elgin Park'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
9thpercentile

Out of 799 buildings in this neighborhood, 727 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.
