Inner Richmond, SF 94118 1434038 5 units · 2 fl · 1909

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 314-316 3Rd 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.

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

The 314-316 3rd Avenue building in San Francisco's Inner Richmond neighborhood is a 2-story mixed-use property constructed in 1909, containing 5 residential units above commercial space, currently owned by Mar Family Partnership LP. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past 15 years, with the most recent major work occurring in 2021 when Giorgio's Pizza received a $115,000 renovation including new entry doors and storefront systems. In 2020, the building underwent a $25,000 roofing project, while 2019 saw the installation of a new UL300 kitchen fire suppression system, demonstrating ongoing attention to safety systems. Previous accessibility improvements were made in 2009 with the addition of an accessible restroom and modifications to the entrance, supported by electrical upgrades including a 200-amp service update in 2010.

Recent building maintenance and community issues include a 2023 graffiti incident on the commercial portion, an overgrown tree issue affecting garage access resolved in March 2024, and multiple illegal parking complaints in 2024. Several permits and inspections were completed in 2019-2020, including electrical work for power relocation and kitchen safety systems. The property has experienced recurring issues with waste receptacle management in 2023 and has had multiple service requests filed with DPW Operations. While the building has maintained its basic infrastructure through regular updates, as evidenced by the roofing work and electrical system improvements, recent issues appear primarily related to external factors such as parking and street maintenance rather than internal building systems or safety concerns.

Risk rating

How 314-316 3Rd 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
17thpercentile

Out of 1723 buildings in this neighborhood, 1430 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 size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building age

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