Rent & eviction protection

Is 58 Bessie 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 1900

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 1900
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 four-unit multi-family residential building at 58 Bessie Street in Bernal Heights, owned by Leonard Simonetti Power Of, is a 2-story apartment structure built in 1900. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past decade, with the most recent major work being a gas houseline extension completed in November 2023. Notable renovations included a comprehensive exterior upgrade in 2013 involving kitchen remodeling, siding repair, exterior painting, garage slab and driveway repair, foundation work, and the installation of energy-efficient windows. The building's systems have received substantial attention, with electrical upgrades in 2014 replacing an old Federal Pacific panel and grounding the electrical service, while plumbing improvements included sewer repair in 2017 and basement bathroom remodeling in 2015.

The property has experienced some maintenance challenges, most notably a mold issue reported in December 2018 affecting walls and ceilings, which city records indicate was filed with both Housing Inspection Services and Building Inspection Division. There have been multiple unpermitted work complaints over the years, including concerns about unauthorized conversion of storage space into a studio (2015) and potential unauthorized splitting of second-floor apartments (2013), though these issues were marked as not active. The building has undergone various routine inspections, with records showing attention to common areas in 2007 and historical violations related to interior surfaces. Recent 311 calls indicate some ongoing community concerns in the vicinity, particularly regarding street cleaning and parking issues, though these are external to the building itself.

Risk rating

How 58 Bessie 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
59thpercentile

Out of 1276 buildings in this neighborhood, 523 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
