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 2020
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
Likely exempt from AB 1482. Housing with a certificate of occupancy issued within the previous 15 years is exempt from the state rent cap and just-cause rules.

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 305-unit, 13-story residential building at 55-75 Golden Gate Avenue, owned by 1066 Market LLC, has experienced numerous significant issues since its construction in 2020. Most notably, serious concerns emerged in 2025-2026 regarding security and safety, including allegations of unauthorized surveillance through hidden cameras in common areas and individual units, and a poorly maintained ventilation system reportedly bringing in toxins. Multiple water-related problems have been documented, with violations in 2024-2025 regarding damaged walls and ceilings in both common areas and individual units, leading to necessary repairs in the lobby area. The building has also faced significant infrastructure challenges, including elevator accessibility issues, problems with the building's Bi-Directional Amplifier system on the 14th floor, and concerns about toxic gases and second-hand smoke infiltration from external sources.

The property has a documented history of maintenance and code compliance issues, with 24 complaints filed with the Department of Building Inspection over the past seven years, including seven Notices of Violation (NOVs) and eight building permits totaling $57,214 in construction costs. Recent construction management appears to be addressing some violations, with permits issued in 2025 for lobby ceiling repairs related to water leaks, though several violations remain "not active" as of the latest records. The building also experiences periodic external issues typical of the Tenderloin neighborhood, as evidenced by multiple 311 service requests related to illegal parking and street cleanliness matters between April and July 2026.

Risk rating

How 55-75 Golden Gate 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 172 buildings in this neighborhood, 122 are predicted to be safer.

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.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

DBI tenant complaints (past 7 years)

Formal complaints tenants filed with DBI about this building over 7 years.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 6.6%
Moderate concern 81.2%
Severe concern 12.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
