Rent & eviction protection

Is 324 Woolsey 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 1920

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 1920
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 324 Woolsey Street in the Portola neighborhood, owned by the Yeung Family Trust, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1920. The property's maintenance record shows minimal historical work, with only one completed building permit on file for reroofing work done in 1990. However, the most significant recent event was a sewage back-up incident in December 2024, which was promptly addressed and resolved by the PUC - Sewer Operations team. The property has experienced multiple environmental and maintenance issues in late 2024, including several instances of non-offensive graffiti on public spaces (including a pole and sidewalk) between November 21-25, 2024, and various reports of garbage and debris on the street, some of which involved abandoned furniture. While these street-level issues are important for overall neighborhood quality, they are primarily related to public space rather than the building itself.

The surrounding area has seen three notable tenant buyouts in nearby addresses between 2022-2023, with significant payouts including $175,000 for four tenants at 346 Woolsey Street, $45,624 for four tenants at 340 Woolsey Street, and $16,000 for one tenant at 534 Woolsey Street. These buyouts suggest ongoing changes in the immediate area, though they are not directly related to the conditions of 324 Woolsey Street itself. The property has also been subject to various street maintenance issues in late 2024, including one open case regarding a curb defect (reported November 25, 2024) and two abandoned vehicle reports, though these issues are primarily related to public infrastructure rather than the building's condition.

Risk rating

How 324 Woolsey 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
67thpercentile

Out of 255 buildings in this neighborhood, 84 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.
