Rent & eviction protection

Is 732-734 Arguello Blvd 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 1906

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.

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

This two-story multi-family residential building located at 732-734 Arguello Blvd in the Lone Mountain neighborhood was constructed in 1906 and contains three units, with one ground-level unit allegedly converted from commercial space according to a complaint filed in July 2023. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, most notably a roof replacement in 2020 with new compost shingles costing $15,000, and substantial electrical and plumbing upgrades in 2009 including the replacement of an old fuse panel with a new system, installation of additional house meters, and gas line improvements for water heaters totaling $4,000. A bathroom remodeling project was completed in Unit #2 in 2001. The building has experienced some maintenance-related issues, including a complaint in February 2020 regarding a rainwater leader discharging onto the public sidewalk, which was marked as not active but required monthly monitoring fees.

Recent activity around the property shows multiple reports of street cleaning needs and parking violations in 2024, including several instances of illegal parking on sidewalks and garbage debris issues, though these are external to the building itself. The property underwent significant infrastructure modernization in 2009, with electrical work including the installation of a 125-amp panel board with multiple circuits, and plumbing work involving the installation of new copper piping from the meter. The building's systems have been maintained through regular updates, with the most recent major work being the 2020 roof replacement. Planning records confirm the roof work was completed in-kind with no changes to the roof form, and all permits related to the 2009 upgrades were completed or cancelled as appropriate, with one specific plumbing permit having expired.

Risk rating

How 732-734 Arguello Blvd'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.
