Rent & eviction protection

Is 2287-2289 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 1895

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 1895
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 2287-2289 Bryant Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood. Built in 1895 and currently owned by the Elena Engel Revocable Living Trust, this flats and duplex-style building underwent significant renovations in 2012, including a major $88,000 remodel that added a home office and storage space on the ground floor, along with foundation upgrades and a new concrete slab. The 2012 improvements included comprehensive plumbing upgrades, such as a new house trap sewer lateral, trench drain, and an upgraded electrical system with additional lighting and receptacles, specifically for the garage lower office suite. More recent improvements include the installation of heat pump water heaters in November 2023, replacing existing gas water heaters.

The building's maintenance and incident history shows regular upkeep, particularly during the 2012 renovation period, with electrical, plumbing, and general improvements all properly permitted and completed. The property has experienced typical urban neighborhood issues over the past years, as evidenced by 311 calls, though these were primarily related to street cleaning needs and parking enforcement rather than building-specific concerns. Recent 311 calls from 2020-2024 have mostly been resolved or closed without direct impact on the building's condition or safety, including reports of human/animal waste on streets, a defaced sign, and a parking violation. The most recent building improvements in late 2023 demonstrate ongoing maintenance and upgrading of building systems, particularly with the transition from gas to electric water heating systems.

Risk rating

How 2287-2289 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
84thpercentile
