Rent & eviction protection

Is 747-751 Minna 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 1907

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 1907
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 four-unit, 1907 apartment building at 747-751 Minna Street in San Francisco's South of Market neighborhood, currently owned by Victor & Maria Kunin Lvg Tr, has a history of various safety and maintenance issues requiring attention over the years. The building has undergone several routine safety inspections between 2003 and 2011, with violations recorded in 2003 related to gas utility shutoff tools, fire extinguisher maintenance, and gas meter instructional diagram postings, all of which were resolved by August 22, 2003. More recent inspections between 2007 and 2011 did not indicate any outstanding violations. The building has experienced recurring fire safety system challenges, with multiple complaints about alarm systems between 2005 and 2017, though most were either found to have no merit or were resolved promptly, with the exception of a 2016 alarm system complaint and a 2007 alarm system issue which required correction. Additionally, there were two incidents of blocked exits reported in 2011 and 2017 that were corrected.

Recent records from early 2025 show multiple reports of garbage and debris issues near the property, though these appear to be street-related concerns rather than building-specific problems. The property underwent consideration for significant modifications in the past, including proposals for vertical expansion and internal reconfiguration, but records show these were either withdrawn or marked as informational. The building's location has experienced challenges with street cleanliness and encampments, as evidenced by numerous reports in the past few months, though these are external to the building itself.

Risk rating

How 747-751 Minna 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.
