Rent & eviction protection

Is 262-266 Noe 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 1900

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 1900
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-story mixed-use building at 262-266 Noe Street in Duboce Triangle, built in 1900 and currently owned by Survivors Tr - Lappos Lvg T, has experienced significant commercial vacancy issues in recent years. The ground-floor retail space, previously a laundromat, has undergone several attempted transitions, including proposals for a medical cannabis dispensary in 2016 (cancelled), and more recently, a wine retail store conversion filed in May 2024 that includes accessibility improvements such as an all-gender restroom and new entrance doors. This commercial turnover followed multiple violations and complaints between 2016-2022 regarding vacant storefront conditions, including several citations under the Vacant or Abandoned Building Ordinance and related enforcement actions between 2016 and 2019.

The property has maintained basic infrastructure through various improvements, including two reroofing projects (1994 and 2006), and interior renovations such as bathroom updates in 1992 and deck repairs in 1991. A notable compliance issue arose in 2016 when an unpermitted security grill installation at the ground level prompted violation notices, though this was subsequently addressed through a 2017 abatement permit. The building's upper residential units (3 total) have not shown any recorded violations or complaints. Recent property management activities include multiple sidewalk cleaning requests and garbage removal calls through 311 services in late 2023 and early 2024, though most were resolved without action or with minimal findings.

Risk rating

How 262-266 Noe 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
26thpercentile

Out of 287 buildings in this neighborhood, 212 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
