Rent & eviction protection

Is 58 Kissling 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 1906

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.

Built 1906
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 Gonzalez Family Trust property at 58 Kissling St is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1906 in San Francisco's South of Market neighborhood. The most pressing current issue involves active violations related to lead paint hazards, with multiple complaints filed in July 2024 regarding peeling paint on both the interior and exterior surfaces, presenting potential safety risks particularly to vulnerable populations such as children and pregnant women. These violations, which include requirements for proper removal and disposal of lead-based paint, have been documented in complaints #202426445 and #202426445, with Notice of Violations (NOVs) issued on July 26, 2024, though notably no immediate abatement response is recorded.

The building's history shows a mixture of residential and street-related issues, with several 311 calls for various concerns between 2019 and 2024. These include street cleaning matters, abandoned vehicles, and infrastructure issues such as a burnt-out street light and a flooding incident. Notable external cleanliness concerns were documented between 2019 and 2021, including reports of human/animal waste and medical waste on nearby streets, all of which were subsequently resolved by city services. The property has undergone at least one housing inspection in recent months, as evidenced by the investigation that led to the current active lead paint violations.

Risk rating

How 58 Kissling 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
56thpercentile

Out of 430 buildings in this neighborhood, 189 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.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Neighborhood location

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

Building age

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