Rent & eviction protection

Is 1733-1735 Lane 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 1963

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 1963
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 two-unit residential building at 1733-1735 Lane Street in the Bayview neighborhood, owned by Mckenzie 2015 Trust, has undergone significant renovations since its construction in 1963. The most substantial event on record was a fire incident in late 2014 that required extensive repairs costing $85,000, including work on the kitchen, electrical systems, and roof structures. Following the fire, the building underwent comprehensive electrical upgrades in early 2015, involving new wiring installations across multiple circuits, lights, switches, and receptacles, along with kitchen and bathroom remodeling. The property has maintained ongoing upkeep, including a complete reroofing project in September 2014 costing $11,100.

Recent activity on the property includes an active housing inspection complaint filed in September 2024 regarding a possible illegal unit, which remains unresolved as of October 2023. The building's immediate vicinity has experienced numerous parking-related issues in 2024, with multiple reports of sidewalk parking violations, particularly involving a Dark Grey Lexus that received citations. Additionally, there was a complaint about unauthorized scaffolding in December 2023 that resulted in a correction notice being issued. Earlier complaints from 2022 and 2020 involved vehicles blocking driveways, and in 2021, there was an abandoned vehicle report that was resolved when the vehicle was no longer present. The only historical property maintenance issue was a weed and grass violation in 2008, which was promptly corrected.

Risk rating

How 1733-1735 Lane 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
92ndpercentile

Out of 382 buildings in this neighborhood, 31 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Building age
