Marina, SF 94123 0936010 3 units · 3 fl · 1906

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 2418-2420 Lombard St 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 before 1979
Built 1906
2 or more units

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 1906
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 2418-2420 Lombard Street is a three-story, multi-family residential building constructed in 1906, containing 3 units plus commercial space, currently owned by Domi Investments LLC. The building has experienced recurring maintenance and safety issues over the years, with the most recent fire safety violation recorded in January 2024 regarding sleeping area requirements, and multiple past violations related to fire systems including alarms, extinguishers, and sprinkler systems between 2015-2019 - all of which were ultimately corrected. The building has a documented history of plumbing and water-related problems, with multiple complaints about roof leaks and water damage affecting the restaurant portion between 2012-2013, and sewer issues in 2022, including a significant incident in August 2013 involving a broken sewer and plumbing leak near the restaurant. The property underwent several structural and maintenance works, including the installation of a fire suppression system in 2009 ($4,000) and sewer line/house trap replacement in 2010, though multiple violations in 2004 and complaints related to illegal living units above the restaurant raise concerns about past permit compliance.

Recent activity on Lombard Street has included various street maintenance and public safety issues, with 311 calls in 2022-2024 regarding utility excavation, sidewalk defects, flooding, and general cleaning needs, including some cases involving blocked sidewalks and construction materials. The building experienced five fire incidents between 2015-2019, mostly related to system malfunctions and false alarms, with no civilian injuries reported. The property's maintenance record shows a mixture of resolved and recurring issues, with some improvements made over time, though the recent 2024 fire violation suggests that not all safety requirements are currently being met. The building's permit history shows several street space and sidewalk permits from 2009-2010, and a notable plumbing permit for sewer work, indicating some level of infrastructure maintenance has occurred.

Risk rating

How 2418-2420 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.
