Rent & eviction protection

Is 1326-1330 South Van Ness Ave 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.

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 three-unit residential building at 1326-1330 South Van Ness Avenue in the Inner Mission, built in 1900 and currently owned by 2030 Sv Ness Llc, has a documented history of maintenance and compliance issues, particularly relating to staircase safety and general habitability concerns. The property has undergone several stair repair projects over the years, including a significant repair of back stairs in 2018 (cost $8,000), a stringer repair in 2007 ($500), and a post repair in 2004 ($2,000), highlighting ongoing attention to stair safety requirements. A cluster of violations from August 2007 included issues with heating system maintenance, plumbing problems, lead paint hazards, and a fire safety concern regarding blocked exits. These violations and associated complaints about rodent and roach infestation, low water pressure, electrical issues, malfunctioning locks, mold, and unstable flooring were officially abated by June 2009.

The building's plumbing infrastructure has received attention, with notable work in 2011 involving the extension of two gas houselines serving 1326 and 1330 addresses. Since 2022, there have been multiple reports of street cleaning and debris issues near the property, with the most recent being a garbage and debris complaint in January 2025. Additionally, there were several instances of graffiti requiring removal between 2022-2024, including some problematic content requiring special handling. A tree root issue affecting sidewalk integrity was reported in April 2022 and remains open as of the latest records, while other general cleaning and maintenance requests have been promptly resolved by the Department of Public Works. The building's history shows a pattern of addressing violations and maintenance issues, though some infrastructure concerns appear to have persisted over time.

Risk rating

How 1326-1330 South Van Ness Ave'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

Grade A–B — Low risk

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.
