Rent & eviction protection

Is 2678-2680 22Nd 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.

Built 1917
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 2678-2680 22nd Street is a 2-story mixed-use building constructed in 1917, featuring 3 residential units above ground-level commercial space, currently owned by 22nd & York, LLC. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with the most recent major work including the replacement of two electrical panels in 2022 to meet current code requirements, and a complete house trap and sewer line replacement in 2020. The commercial space has received various upgrades, including ADA compliance improvements in 2011-2012 (electronic door opener installation, handrails, and restroom upgrades), and façade improvements such as an awning installation in 2019 and associated sign work in 2019. The property has had some compliance issues, most notably a series of violations in 2010-2012 related to unauthorized signage for "Mr. Pizza Man," which were eventually resolved through proper permitting. Recent maintenance issues have been minimal, with the only notable complaint being a broken exhaust system in 2021 that was promptly addressed.

The building's historical records show regular maintenance and improvements, including plumbing upgrades in 2014 (new under-slab plumbing and fixture relocations) and roofing work in 2005. Recent activity around the property (as of 2024) has primarily consisted of routine neighborhood maintenance issues such as parking violations and street cleaning matters, which are typical for the area and not directly related to the building's condition or management. There have been no serious building code violations or safety concerns reported in recent years, and all previous violations have been resolved through appropriate channels. The property has consistently maintained its mixed-use character, with residential units above ground-floor commercial space, and has complied with most regulatory requirements following initial enforcement actions.

Risk rating

How 2678-2680 22Nd 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

Grade A–B — Low risk

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.
