Rent & eviction protection

Is 262-264 2Nd 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 1902

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 1902
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 262-264 2nd Avenue is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Richmond neighborhood. Built in 1902 and currently owned by the Luong/Quach Family Trust, this flats and duplex-style building has undergone several significant improvements over the years. Most recently, in 2015, substantial renovations were completed in unit 1405, including kitchen upgrades with recessed lighting, bathroom improvements with a new shower system, and various electrical updates, with associated plumbing and electrical permits issued at that time. Prior to this, the building had undergone major structural and functional improvements in the early 1990s, including the construction of additional living space at the rear of the garage (including two bedrooms and a family room), modifications to interior stairs, and various garage improvements including door replacement and concrete repairs.

The property has experienced recurring issues with parking enforcement, particularly regarding driveway blockages, with multiple citations issued between 2021 and 2023 for vehicles blocking the driveway. There have also been two documented sidewalk issues in the vicinity: a defect reported in October 2022 that required two service requests to address, and a water leak incident reported in 2021. These exterior maintenance issues appear to be ongoing concerns, with the sidewalk defect being noted as remaining in 2023. The building's infrastructure maintenance history shows attention to essential systems, including a complete reroofing project in 2001 and the installation of gas houseline extensions in 2007, suggesting regular upkeep of major building systems.

Risk rating

How 262-264 2Nd 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
40thpercentile

Out of 1723 buildings in this neighborhood, 1034 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.

Building age

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

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.
