Rent & eviction protection

Is 458-460 23Rd 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 three-unit multi-family residential building at 458-460 23rd Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Bea Investment Properties L, is a two-story structure constructed in 1920. The building has experienced recurring heating system issues, with three separate complaints filed between December 2019 and November 2020 regarding inadequate heating, including instances of tenants using ovens for warmth and reporting gas-related concerns when attempting to use the heating system. Additionally, there were reports of various building maintenance problems in 2017, including plumbing leaks, electrical issues, and deteriorated fixtures. The property has a documented history of code compliance work from 1990, and while a gas leak incident was recorded, it was noted to cause no civilian injuries.

In terms of recent exterior maintenance and neighborhood interactions, the building's vicinity has seen multiple 311 calls between 2020 and 2025, primarily related to street cleaning and garbage concerns. There were documented issues with debris, loose garbage, and sidewalk defects, with one case in December 2021 resulting in a correction notice for excavation without a permit. Parking enforcement was required in multiple instances in 2021 for vehicles blocking driveways, and there was one report of a defaced parking sign that was subsequently repaired. While these external issues are mostly routine urban challenges, they suggest ongoing attention to both building maintenance and neighborhood upkeep requirements.

Risk rating

How 458-460 23Rd 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
21stpercentile

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 1778 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
