Rent & eviction protection

Is 618-622 Broderick 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.

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 1892
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 Rizzi Family Trust owns this 5-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building located at 618-622 Broderick Street in Park North, which was constructed in 1892. The property has undergone several maintenance and repair projects over the years, including reroofing and rear stair repairs in 1998, and street space/sidewalk work in 2008. Historical issues include termite problems addressed in 1984, while more recent concerns center around routine safety inspections, with the most recent occurring in 2017. A notable incident occurred in 2020 involving carbon monoxide, though fortunately no civilian injuries were reported.

The property has experienced recurring issues with parking violations, particularly in 2023 and 2024, with multiple reports of driveway blocking and illegal parking, resulting in citations. There have also been some building maintenance concerns, including a leaky roof and substandard back stairwell reported in 1998, and garbage receptacle placement violations in 2007, though these were promptly addressed within a month. The building appears to have maintained active compliance with housing inspection requirements, with no currently active violations or complaints on file. The most recent complaint (2023-2024) involved issues with garbage and debris, which was resolved. While the property has experienced various maintenance issues over time, the records indicate that most problems have been addressed, with no recent major building violations or safety concerns reported.

Risk rating

How 618-622 Broderick 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
58thpercentile

Out of 797 buildings in this neighborhood, 335 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Neighborhood location

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