Rent & eviction protection

Is 36-38 Cameo Way 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 1962

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 three-story multi-family residential building at 36-38 Cameo Way in Diamond Heights, owned by Laura & Arend Naylor, has undergone significant improvements and maintenance since its legalization as a two-unit property in 2015. The most recent substantial work occurred in 2020, including a $40,000 kitchen remodel with new cabinetry, counters, and flooring, accompanied by electrical upgrades and plumbing modifications. The building has seen consistent maintenance and upgrades, with earlier improvements including the replacement of aluminum windows with wood-clad options at the rear (2015), dry rot repairs (2013), and electrical system modernization including new circuits and a subpanel upgrade (2020). The property has also experienced some structural and maintenance issues needing attention, with multiple 311 calls in late 2024 regarding various concerns including illegal parking, graffiti, and tree maintenance. While most building permits have been completed satisfactorily, there are current open issues related to parking enforcement and an overgrown tree blocking signs. The fire incident record shows only one instance of a local alarm system false alarm, with no civilian injuries reported.

Risk rating

How 36-38 Cameo Way'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
82ndpercentile

Out of 17 buildings in this neighborhood, 3 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Building age

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

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.
