Rent & eviction protection

Is 358-360 29Th 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 1923

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 1923
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 property at 358-360 29th Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1923 and currently owned by Five29 Interests LLC. The building has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance work over the past two decades, with the most recent major repairs occurring in 2022 when dryrot wood was repaired on emergency stairs at a cost of $3,000. In 2018, substantial structural improvements were made, including the replacement of five interior footings and the installation of anchor bolts and holdowns, which suggests significant reinforcement of the building's structural elements at a cost of $16,000.

The building has seen considerable modernization efforts between 2005-2007, including comprehensive bathroom and kitchen remodels of both units, with specific updates such as shower replacements, fixture relocations, and laundry room modifications. The 2007 renovations included the addition of new full bathrooms on both the second and third floors, accompanied by extensive electrical and plumbing updates, including the installation of numerous new lights, outlets, and circuit improvements. Earlier work included the conversion of an illegal in-law unit in the garage to storage in 2005. The multiple street space permits pulled in 2018, though minimal in cost, indicate some activity related to the public right-of-way. The building's maintenance history suggests proactive management, particularly with regard to addressing structural issues and updating essential facilities, while the most recent repairs to the emergency stairs indicate ongoing attention to safety features.

Risk rating

How 358-360 29Th 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
65thpercentile

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 788 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.
