Rent & eviction protection

Is 205-207 Bonview 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 1900
2 or more units

Property type
Multi-Family Residential

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

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

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 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 property at 205-207 Bonview Street is a 2-story, 3-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900 and currently owned by the Doherty Family Trust. The building has undergone several significant renovations and faced multiple maintenance issues over the past two decades. Most recently, in 2017, there was a notable plumbing-related incident involving water damage in the kitchen ceiling and wall areas, which had previously experienced leaks in 2016. The property was subject to multiple code enforcement actions in 2016 regarding unauthorized construction work, including electrical, plumbing, and building modifications, though these were later addressed through proper permitting. Between 2015-2016, several substantial improvements were made, including a kitchen upgrade in unit #207B ($4,000), installation of new kitchen appliances ($15,000), and the addition of four new skylights ($7,500). The building's systems have seen various updates, including electrical works in 2015-2016 and plumbing modifications in 2008, though there were also instances of unpermitted work in 2016.

Historical records from 2001 indicate lead paint concerns that were later abated in 2002, and there have been routine building inspections over the years, including a 2018 inspection of common areas. Recent maintenance issues have included exterior concerns such as a missing side sewer vent cover (2022) and a sewage backup incident (2022). The property has experienced various infrastructure and maintenance needs typical of its age, including a 1999 reroofing project and stairway repairs in 2002. Each of these issues and improvements reflects the ongoing maintenance and renovation history of this century-old building, with particular attention to system upgrades and tenant comfort in recent years.

Risk rating

How 205-207 Bonview 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
30thpercentile

Out of 1276 buildings in this neighborhood, 893 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
