Rent & eviction protection

Is 201-203 Plymouth 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.

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.

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 201 Plymouth Avenue is a two-story mixed-use building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Sam & Nori Lee Revoc Tr, containing two residential units. The building has undergone significant recent activity, most notably with two major construction projects permitted in mid-2023: the addition of a two-story ADU valued at $360,000 and a comprehensive remodeling project that includes adding a new residential unit, bathroom modifications, and interior renovations across multiple floors, valued at $233,301. However, the building has experienced recurring issues with vacancy and structural concerns, particularly following a vehicle collision in December 2020 that damaged the corner of the building, leading to multiple building violations regarding security and compliance with vacant building ordinances in early 2021. While these violations were ultimately abated by November 2021, the property has faced subsequent challenges with perceived abandonment, including multiple complaints between mid-2022 and mid-2023 regarding its condition as an apparently vacant or blighted structure.

The building's current status reflects ongoing construction activity, as evidenced by recent complaints about early morning construction noise in November 2024. The property has also generated several recent complaints regarding parking violations in the immediate vicinity during late 2024, though these are external to the building's condition itself. Of particular note is a complaint filed in November 2024 regarding electrical work being conducted without proper permits, and the property has additional ongoing issues with a vacant storefront as of mid-2024. A comprehensive plumbing upgrade and electrical service modernization project is currently in progress, with permits issued in early 2025 for substantial improvements including new bathrooms, kitchen installations, and electrical rewiring with service upgrade to 400 amps with four meters. While these improvements suggest significant investment in the property's rehabilitation, the repeated issues with vacancy, unauthorized work, and neighborhood impact through construction activities indicate ongoing challenges with property management and maintenance.

Risk rating

How 201-203 Plymouth 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

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
1stpercentile
