Rent & eviction protection

Is 547 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.

Built before 1979
Built 1941
2 or more units

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 1941
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 two-unit residential building at 547 24th Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Edward T & Juliet P Lundgre, has a mixed history of modifications and compliance issues since its construction in 1941. Most notably, there have been two significant adjustments to the unit count: in 1986, the property underwent a reversion and elimination of an illegal third unit, followed by a 1998 legalization of ground floor rooms including a bedroom, storage, lobby, and half bath. A building permit for reroofing issued in 1998 was never completed, resulting in an expired status. The property has experienced recurring issues with unauthorized dwelling spaces, including a documented complaint in 1998 about an illegal apartment behind the garage that was addressed by housing inspectors.

Recent concerns primarily revolve around exterior maintenance and parking issues in the vicinity. A complaint filed in July 2024 regarding chipping paint in the kitchen was recorded, though its current status remains unclear. The property has been the subject of numerous parking-related complaints between 2022 and 2024, including multiple reports of sidewalk parking, some resulting in citations while others could not be validated. A tree maintenance issue was reported in December 2023 and remains open as of the latest data. Additionally, there was one documented cooking fire incident (limited to a container) with no civilian injuries, though the date of occurrence is not specified. The building's recent history shows ongoing challenges with both building maintenance and parking enforcement in the immediate area, with particular attention needed to the status of the July 2024 interior maintenance complaint and the open tree maintenance request from December 2023.

Risk rating

How 547 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
