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 2016
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

Located in San Francisco's Cow Hollow neighborhood, the 24-unit apartment building at 2347-2353 Lombard Street was constructed in 2016 as a mixed-use development by Vela Properties LLC, incorporating both residential and commercial spaces. The four-story building's construction was accompanied by comprehensive safety systems, including a building-wide fire sprinkler system, though several fire safety concerns have emerged over the years. Notably, there are two open fire violations from January 2024 regarding sleeping area requirements, and a history of issues with alarm systems and sprinklers between 2016 and 2023, most of which were eventually corrected. The building experienced significant heat transfer issues in 2018, with multiple complaints about unsuitable heat from the commercial space affecting residential unit #203, particularly concerning children's welfare.

The property has undergone various improvements and commercial adaptations since its completion, including the conversion of 2,435 square feet of retail space into a yoga studio (CorePower Yoga) in 2017, which involved extensive tenant improvements and fire safety modifications. Multiple building permits document ongoing maintenance and system updates, including HVAC installations, plumbing modifications, and electrical work, with the most recent being related to moving permits and street space usage. The building's maintenance history shows regular response to 311 calls regarding typical urban issues such as waste removal, graffiti, and parking enforcement, with the most recent incidents occurring between 2022 and 2024. While the building generally maintains compliance with safety regulations, the recurring nature of fire safety concerns suggests ongoing attention to life safety systems is required.

Risk rating

How 2347-2353 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
3rdpercentile

Out of 861 buildings in this neighborhood, 835 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.

Neighborhood location

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