Rent & eviction protection

Is 365 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 4-unit multi-family residential building at 365 3rd Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Richmond neighborhood, owned by the Ng 1988 Family Trust, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1977. Most notably, the building has seen consistent window upgrades across multiple years, with the most recent installation of 15 energy-efficient windows (U-value .30) completed in 2022, following previous window replacements in 2011 (12 street-visible windows in units 1 & 3). The property has also received substantial interior improvements, including comprehensive renovations of unit #4 in 2013 (kitchen and two bathrooms with extensive electrical work including new lights, switches, receptacles, and appliances) and unit #1 in 2010 (kitchen and bathroom upgrades with plumbing and electrical work).

The building experienced some compliance issues in 2010 related to fire safety, specifically regarding combustible storage and egress obstruction, but these violations were promptly addressed and abated by July 2010. Since then, there have been no major violations on record. The most recent routine inspection was conducted in 2015, which was marked as not active. More recently, there have been several 311 calls regarding the property, primarily related to general street cleaning and sidewalk maintenance issues in 2022-2024, though these are external to the building itself. The property's maintenance record shows a pattern of regular upkeep and modernization, particularly focusing on energy efficiency through window replacements and comprehensive unit renovations.

Risk rating

How 365 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
86thpercentile

Out of 1723 buildings in this neighborhood, 241 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.

Number of units

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

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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