Rent & eviction protection

Is 410-412 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.

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 1904
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 410-412 24th Ave in the Central Richmond neighborhood is a two-story, 5-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1904, currently owned by Lin Hua Yan. The building has undergone several significant modifications over the past decade, with the most recent being a commercial space conversion to a gym in July 2023, involving light fixture updates and minor electrical work ($8,000). The property has experienced multiple code compliance issues, particularly in 2023-2024, with active complaints regarding unpermitted work and an alleged illegal unit in the rear commercial space. These recent complaints cited unauthorized sheetrock installation, bathroom construction, and electrical work. Several historical violations were recorded in 2014, including hazardous electrical conditions, glazing issues, and water damage, though these appear to have been resolved. The building has undergone various improvements over the years, including a 2015 kitchen remodel, water heater installation, and electrical upgrades.

The property's maintenance history reveals recurring issues with water damage, weatherproofing, and safety systems. Notable complaints include 2019 reports of bathroom conditions, rodent infestation, and window issues, along with 2021 concerns about ceiling leaks and mold. Historical records show the installation of an automatic fire sprinkler system in 1990 and more recent fire alarm system concerns in 2021, which were reportedly corrected in early 2022. The building's recent permit activity includes electrical improvements (2023) and various maintenance work, though multiple permits from 2013-2015 were either cancelled or expired. While the property has maintained basic safety systems, including smoke detectors and sprinklers, the pattern of recent complaints suggests ongoing challenges with building maintenance and compliance with current codes and regulations.

Risk rating

How 410-412 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
3rdpercentile

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 2182 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
