Rent & eviction protection

Is 1316-1320 Dolores 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 1915

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 1915
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, three-story multi-family residential building at 1316-1320 Dolores Street in Noe Valley, owned by Zanco Trust The, was constructed in 1915 and has recently undergone significant renovations. Since 2022, there has been substantial work completed, including garage door replacements, driveway improvements, and multiple unit remodels totaling over $300,000 in permitted work. Recent improvements from 2022-2023 included infilling windows, updating plumbing systems with forced heating units, and comprehensive bathroom and kitchen remodels, demonstrating proactive maintenance and modernization efforts by the current ownership.

The building's history includes some concerning maintenance issues prior to 2021, including a 2019 complaint regarding weatherproofing, lead hazards, and paint maintenance that was eventually abated in August 2021, as well as a 2013 incident involving sewage flooding in the garage that was quickly addressed. Earlier violations from 2003-2004 included various safety concerns such as the need for handrails and fire safety requirements, all of which were subsequently resolved. The property's maintenance record shows a pattern of addressing violations and making improvements, with recent permits focusing on modernization rather than reactive repairs. The building's systems have been regularly updated, including sewer line repairs in 2008, electrical service upgrades in 2005, and various plumbing improvements over the years, suggesting an ongoing commitment to maintaining the property's infrastructure. Recent 311 calls have mostly been related to parking issues and street cleaning matters rather than building maintenance concerns, indicating improved property management in recent years.

Risk rating

How 1316-1320 Dolores 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
54thpercentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 864 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
