Rent & eviction protection

Is 46-48 Sharon 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 1904

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 1904
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 46-48 Sharon Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood. Built in 1904 and currently owned by the William S Tannenbaum Trust, this flats/duplex structure has undergone numerous significant renovations and improvements over the past two decades. Most notably, in 2021, a comprehensive bathroom remodel was completed at a cost of $31,400, which included the installation of exhaust fans, recessed lights, and new fixtures, along with the addition of a Tesla Powerwall battery backup system. Earlier improvements include a 2016 bathroom addition in the second-floor unit, a kitchen remodel in 2012, and several critical infrastructure upgrades including reroofing in 2009 and structural beam replacement with steel support systems in 2008.

A concerning issue emerged in August 2021 when a complaint was filed regarding a potentially unauthorized ground floor unit with full kitchen and bathroom facilities, though this complaint is currently listed as not active. The building's recent maintenance history shows regular updates to plumbing and electrical systems, including the replacement of galvanized piping in 2013 and various bathroom and kitchen improvements. The property has experienced recurring issues with parking violations near the building, particularly regarding driveway blockages, with multiple enforcement actions taken between 2021 and 2024, though these are primarily external neighborhood management issues rather than direct building concerns.

Risk rating

How 46-48 Sharon 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.
