Rent & eviction protection

Is 80 6Th Ave 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 1910
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 1910
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 multi-family residential building at 80 6th Avenue, built in 1910 and currently owned by Migsif 2 LLC, has undergone extensive renovations and multiple system upgrades between 2020 and 2024. The property, originally designed as a two-unit building, is currently under scrutiny for possibly being remodeled into a single-family dwelling without proper permits, as evidenced by a September 2024 complaint and an "Under Review" status in planning records. The building has received significant safety enhancements, including the installation of a comprehensive fire sprinkler system (completed in 2021), new fire alarm monitoring infrastructure (completed in 2023), and electrical system upgrades. Recent permits in 2024 indicate ongoing interior modifications, including laundry room relocations, bathroom alterations, and kitchen modifications in both units.

The property has a history of addressing maintenance and safety issues, with past violations including lead paint concerns in 2003 (resolved by 2004) and repairs to rotten egress stairs in 2006. Recent complaints from 2024 regarding construction work and parking issues have been documented, along with historical complaints about construction without permits in 2013 and 2006, though these are no longer active. The building has undergone substantial renovations since 2020, including the conversion of spaces, remodels of kitchens and bathrooms, addition of a rear deck, and various system upgrades, suggesting significant investment in improving the property. Recent plumbing work has focused on flue pipe installation and whole-house finishes, while electrical work has included rewiring multiple areas and upgrading to a 400-amp service system.

Risk rating

How 80 6Th Ave'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
92ndpercentile

Out of 660 buildings in this neighborhood, 53 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
