Rent & eviction protection

Is 406-410 Clayton 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 1900

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 1900
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-unit building at 406-410 Clayton Street, owned by La Ron Hodges, is a three-story multi-family residential structure built in 1900 in the Haight Ashbury neighborhood. The property has undergone several significant renovations and faced multiple regulatory challenges over the past few years. Most recently, in late 2023, structural improvements were completed including the installation of steel columns and beams at a cost of $25,000, followed by comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodels in all three units with an estimated cost of $38,000. However, the building has experienced several concerning events, particularly during 2022-2023, including multiple building code violations related to work practices, exterior cleanup, and containment systems, all of which were officially abated by October 2022.

The property has a history of problematic construction practices, with multiple complaints filed between 2022-2023 regarding unpermitted work, safety concerns, and debris management. These issues were particularly notable during exterior painting projects in mid-2022, which raised lead paint concerns among residents. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to structural elements, including recent steel reinforcement of second-floor support columns in 2023, and there have been several routine repairs to windows and stairs documented since the early 2000s. While recent permits indicate ongoing improvements to the property, including new kitchen and bathroom fixtures, appliances, and electrical upgrades, the building's history shows a pattern of regulatory oversight and tenant concerns that required multiple interventions by building authorities.

Risk rating

How 406-410 Clayton 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
20thpercentile
