Rent & eviction protection

Is 2845-2847 Ingalls 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 1910
2 or more units

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

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 1910
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 2845-2847 Ingalls St property in San Francisco's Bayview neighborhood is a 2-story, multi-family residential building with 2 units, constructed in 1910 and owned by Svc Corporation. The building has experienced several significant issues over recent years, most notably a 2022 fire incident that caused structural damage to the rear of the building, particularly affecting the deck and guardrail areas. In 2019, the property received a notice of violation (NOV) for multiple unpermitted modifications, including the installation of a door in a window space, construction of a separating wall between living and commercial spaces, unauthorized remodeling of bathrooms, and furnace installation in a loft area. This violation remains active, although subsequent permits issued in 2022 indicate attempts to address these issues, including work to revert unpermitted changes, replace the furnace, and modify partition walls. The building has a history of maintenance and safety concerns, including multiple fire code violations, unauthorized modifications, and basement kitchen-related issues. Earlier complaints from 2002-2003 documented water damage and maintenance problems, while recent complaints in 2025 have primarily concerned sidewalk debris and parking issues. The property underwent several proposed modifications in 2018, including plans to convert a garage into a dwelling unit and change the use of church space, though these plans were ultimately withdrawn. Despite the property's historical and architectural significance, these ongoing violations and safety concerns suggest a need for continued monitoring of building conditions and compliance efforts.

Risk rating

How 2845-2847 Ingalls 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
8thpercentile

Out of 382 buildings in this neighborhood, 351 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
