Rent & eviction protection

Is 6216-6218 3Rd 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 1923

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.

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 6216-6218 3rd Street in Bayview Heights, owned by Sharon I Montgomery 2016 Living Trust, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues since its construction in 1923. Most notably, in 2022, the property faced multiple violations regarding lead paint hazards, including severely peeling and flaking exterior paint that required proper removal and weatherproofing, with these violations only being abated in February 2023. The building also suffered exterior damage in February 2020 when a vehicle struck the front facade, leading to a repair permit costing $10,000. Additional concerns have emerged more recently, with 311 calls in 2024 reporting various issues including a damaged tree (open as of August 2024), while other 311 calls have addressed matters such as garbage accumulation and sidewalk parking violations, though these were generally resolved promptly.

The building's history includes some serious but resolved incidents, including a building fire (with no reported injuries) and hazardous condition calls, though detailed dates and causes are not specified in the records. Recent complaints have indicated problems with graffiti and general exterior blight, particularly relating to the condition of an apparently boarded-up barbershop portion of the property, with these complaints leading to multiple housing inspection cases between 2022 and 2024. The most recent documented building repair work involved stucco siding repairs to comply with a notice of violation, though it's worth noting that the building has continued to receive various maintenance-related complaints through 2024.

Risk rating

How 6216-6218 3Rd 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
11thpercentile

Out of 54 buildings in this neighborhood, 48 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
