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 1989
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
May be covered by AB 1482. The building is old enough for the statewide rent cap (5% + regional CPI, capped at 10% per year) and just-cause protection after 12 months of tenancy.

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 residential building at 467 19th Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by the Lau Family Trust, has a construction history dating back to 1987 when it was built as a two-story flats & duplex structure. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, including the installation of 16 sprinkler heads in 1988, a horizontal addition in 1992-1993, and a complete reroofing project in 2013 costing approximately $19,280. The building faced multiple fire safety violations in September 2002, all of which were promptly addressed and abated by October 22, 2002, including issues with fire extinguishers, smoke detectors, and egress obstructions. Since then, there have been no recorded violations related to building safety systems.

The property has been subject to routine housing inspections in 2000, 2002, and 2010, all of which were resolved without apparent ongoing issues. More recently, there have been several parking-related incidents outside the building, including reports of sidewalk parking in July 2023 and abandoned vehicles in September 2018 and May 2017, though these external issues do not directly impact building conditions or resident safety. A street cleaning issue was reported and resolved in February 2016, but again, this pertains to external grounds maintenance rather than building conditions.

Risk rating

How 467 19Th 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
93rdpercentile

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 158 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Building age

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

Notices of Violation, owner's portfolio

DBI NOVs across all buildings this owner is registered on — a signal of systemic maintenance issues across the portfolio.
