Rent & eviction protection

Is 283 24Th 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 1916

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.

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-unit, two-story multi-family residential building, located at 283 24th Ave in the Lake-Presidio neighborhood, was constructed in 1916 and is currently owned by Shamsunder & Sadhana Samant. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, including a comprehensive window replacement project in 2007 that involved installing 20 new dual-pane vinyl frame windows in the back of the house, and a complete reroofing in 1992. More recently, plumbing work was completed in April 2010 with the installation of a new 6-inch p-trap.

The property has experienced recurring issues with street cleanliness and sanitation in the surrounding area, particularly evident through multiple 311 calls between 2020 and 2024, with reports of garbage, debris, and loose garbage on several occasions. Notable incidents include a noise complaint regarding entertainment in May 2023, and two separate cases of driveway blocking requiring parking enforcement intervention (one in May 2023 and another in May 2020), both of which were resolved through official citations. The most recent documented 311 calls include a customer callback regarding rent board fee and housing inventory matters in February 2024, and a street cleaning issue involving abandoned garbage in July 2024, both of which were closed with appropriate resolutions. While the building's structural improvements suggest regular maintenance attention, the frequency of external cleanliness issues around the property may impact resident experience.

Risk rating

How 283 24Th 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
69thpercentile

Out of 660 buildings in this neighborhood, 205 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
