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 1980
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
May be covered by AB 1482. The building is old enough for the statewide rent cap (5% + regional CPI, capped at 10% per year) and just-cause protection after 12 months of tenancy.

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 5-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 2272 Lombard St, constructed in 1980, has undergone several significant upgrades and maintenance activities over the past few decades. Most recently, in 2024, the building completed a comprehensive fire alarm system upgrade costing $29,402, including the installation of new manual pull stations, smoke detectors, horn/strobes, and low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas, with the control panel now monitored with advanced technology. The building has seen consistent window improvements, with 14 aluminum windows replaced at the front in 2021 and 5 windows in Unit 3 replaced at the back in 2015. Earlier maintenance records show installation of vinyl siding in 2009, reroofing in 1990, and the addition of a canvas awning in 1987.

The property has experienced three routine housing inspections (2001, 2007, 2008) which identified several violations including fire safety concerns, such as combustible storage and egress obstructions, as well as security and sanitation issues. All these violations were resolved by June 2008. The building's fire alarm system has required attention over the years, with three documented fire alarm complaints between 2005 and 2010, though all were marked as "Condition Corrected." While there have been various 311 calls regarding the property since 2018, most relate to external issues such as graffiti and sidewalk cleaning rather than building-specific concerns. The building's owners have maintained 2272 Lombard St through regular upgrades and prompt attention to violations, with the most recent major systems upgrade focusing on modernizing fire safety equipment to current standards.

Risk rating

How 2272 Lombard 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
69thpercentile

Out of 988 buildings in this neighborhood, 306 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.

Number of units

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

Building size

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

Building age

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