Rent & eviction protection

Is 2230-2240 Bryant 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 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 48-unit multi-family residential building at 2230-2240 Bryant Street, owned by Bryant Terrace LLC, is a 3-story structure built in 1900 that has faced ongoing maintenance and safety challenges over the years. Most recently, in August 2024, unit 12 experienced persistent problems with roaches and mold, while in 2020 there were significant plumbing issues affecting both bathroom and kitchen sinks, resulting in cabinet damage and water intrusion problems. The building has undergone some important improvements, including mandatory soft-story retrofits completed in 2017 (estimated cost $310,000), and multiple system upgrades such as furnace replacements and electrical panel conversions. Fire safety has been an ongoing concern, with recent violations in 2023 regarding sleeping area requirements and prior issues with alarm systems in 2019 that were abated.

The property has a documented history of various maintenance issues that have affected resident comfort and safety, including heating system failures (notably in 2018 and 2005), water leaks (2020), and interior maintenance concerns such as mold/mildew, water damage, and damaged surfaces (2020). Recent inspections have revealed some immediate concerns, including blocked exits (2024) and an open violation for sleeping area requirements (2023). The building's maintenance record shows efforts to address these issues through various permits and repairs, including recent window replacements in unit 12 (2024) and the installation of Ufer ground in the foundation (2018). The property has also experienced recurring issues with waste management, as evidenced by numerous 311 calls for debris and garbage (2024), though these are generally external to the building itself. Dual reports of interior challenges, such as a cooking fire in 2007 and multiple instances of pest infestations, suggest that while some improvements have been made, ongoing maintenance and habitability challenges persist.

Risk rating

How 2230-2240 Bryant 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
1stpercentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 2356 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.
