Rent & eviction protection

Is 2629-2631 19Th 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.

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 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 property at 2629-2631 19th Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission district is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1900. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, with significant work completed in 2021 including the replacement of approximately 700 square feet of wood siding at the rear and the installation of wood windows to replace five aluminum windows, three of which are street-visible. Earlier structural improvements included foundation work in 1992 with brick reinforcement and concrete augmentation, stair replacement in 1999, and multiple roofing projects in 1994, though two of those permits expired.

Recent fire safety concerns have emerged as a pattern, with several violations and complaints between 2018 and 2024 related to sprinkler systems, alarm systems, and fire extinguishers. Specifically, there were violation notices in 2022 and 2024 regarding fire safety equipment, though records indicate these issues were subsequently corrected or abated. The surrounding area has experienced various street maintenance challenges, with multiple reports of abandoned vehicles, garbage, and debris between 2024 and 2025, including instances involving furniture and hazardous materials (needles). The building's location has experienced recent issues with encampments, as evidenced by multiple reports in late 2024, though in each case, responding authorities were unable to locate the reported encampments. Despite these external challenges, the property has generally maintained its structural integrity and basic systems, with most building permits reaching completion status and no recent major structural modifications noted.

Risk rating

How 2629-2631 19Th 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
76thpercentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 571 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
