Rent & eviction protection

Is 757-759 Natoma 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 1909

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 1909
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 4-unit, 2-story residential building at 757-759 Natoma St, owned by Julie's Desk LLC, is a century-old structure (built in 1909) located in San Francisco's South of Market neighborhood. The property has undergone several significant renovations and faced multiple maintenance challenges over the years. Major improvements were made during a substantial renovation in 2010-2011, including the conversion of storage space to a 3-car garage, comprehensive kitchen remodeling, bathroom additions, foundation work, and electrical rewiring of all units. The building's safety systems were notably upgraded with the installation of a fire sprinkler system in 2011 and a voluntary sprinkler monitoring system in 2012, although recent fire code violations related to sleeping area requirements, standpipe systems, and other issues were reported in September-October 2024.

The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues and resident concerns, including recent plumbing problems (sink repairs) in 2023, and historical complaints regarding inadequate garbage service, lighting, and various building systems. Notable building violations from 2004-2009 involved fire safety concerns regarding combustible storage and improper garbage receptacle placement, though these were later abated in 2023. The property has also faced multiple fire safety inspections and violations over the years, with the most recent in late 2024 regarding standpipes and sleeping area requirements. Recent tenant complaints in 2022-2023 highlighted concerns about maintenance and building systems, including plumbing issues, electrical problems, and accessibility concerns. The building's parking situation has been problematic, as evidenced by multiple parking enforcement calls in early 2025 regarding driveway blocking.

Risk rating

How 757-759 Natoma 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 430 buildings in this neighborhood, 318 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
