Rent & eviction protection

Is 766 Kansas 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 1960

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 1960
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 766 Kansas Street property is an 8-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1960 and currently owned by 766 Kansas LLC. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, including a mandatory soft-story retrofit completed in 2015 at a cost of $40,000, which brought the building into compliance with current seismic safety requirements. A new roof was installed in 2013 for $24,331, and historical records show a compliance improvement project was completed in 1985.

Most notably, the building underwent a series of health and safety inspections in 2023-2024, with multiple violations documented in February 2023 related to structural maintenance and self-certification requirements. A subsequent periodic inspection in July 2023 continued these oversight procedures, though records indicate these violations were eventually abated by December 2024. The building has maintained a relatively clean safety record otherwise, with no recorded civilian injuries from fire incidents and only one minor building fire with unintentional ignition noted in the records. The property has experienced various parking-related issues in recent years, with multiple reports of vehicles blocking driveways between 2019 and 2022, though these are external to the building's management. Regular maintenance and oversight have been evident, as shown by the completion of the soft-story retrofit and other building improvements, suggesting ongoing attention to building safety regulations.

Risk rating

How 766 Kansas 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
7thpercentile

Out of 726 buildings in this neighborhood, 675 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
