Rent & eviction protection

Is 448-464 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.

Built before 1979
Built 1905
2 or more units

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

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 1905
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 three-story, nine-unit multi-family residential building at 448-464 Broderick Street, built in 1905 and currently owned by 448-464 Broderick LLC, has undergone several significant structural improvements over the past decades. Most notably, the building completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 (with a cost of $30,000), received a sewer line replacement in the same year, and previously addressed dry rot issues in 2003 with the replacement of a damaged header. The property has maintained its basic infrastructure, including a 1989 installation of laundry facilities, although records show some older permits for reroofing from 1997 that are marked as expired.

The building has been subject to routine safety inspections by Housing Inspection Services in 2001, 2007, 2011, and 2017, with records showing a mold complaint in 2016 affecting multiple areas including a bedroom, hallway closet, and bathroom. Recent history (late 2024) shows multiple 311 calls regarding street-level issues in the vicinity of the property, including reports of encampments, garbage and debris (including instances of human waste), graffiti, and parking violations. While these external factors don't directly reflect on the building's condition, they may impact the general environment around the property. The building's compliance with the soft-story retrofit program and recent plumbing upgrades suggest active maintenance of critical infrastructure, though the presence of a past mold issue indicates historical challenges with moisture management.

Risk rating

How 448-464 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
6thpercentile

Out of 797 buildings in this neighborhood, 749 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.
