Rent & eviction protection

Is 446 11Th 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 1969

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 1969
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-story multi-family residential building at 446 11th Avenue in the Inner Richmond, owned by Wong Yau Fung & Wei & Shing, contains four units and was constructed in 1969. The property has undergone several significant improvements, most notably a comprehensive renovation of Apartment #3 in 2016 that included remodeling 1.5 bathrooms with new fixtures and tiles, along with electrical updates. A foundation underpinning work was completed in 1998. The building has experienced its share of maintenance issues, particularly an alarming cluster of problems documented in February 2023, including non-functioning window locks, a skylight that could not close, rusted kitchen appliances, and leaking fixtures. This recent complaint also raised concerns about lead paint hazards and required fire safety compliance, though all these violations were marked as "Not Active" by May 2023. Historical records show previous heating system failures in 2006, which were promptly addressed, as well as fire safety concerns regarding extinguishers and stair repairs noted in 2002, all of which were resolved. The building's maintenance history suggests periodic attention to both routine maintenance and specific violations, with the most recent issues primarily revolving around safety compliance and outdated fixtures. Recent 311 calls primarily concern street-level issues such as parking violations and missed trash collection, rather than building-specific problems.

Risk rating

How 446 11Th 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
31stpercentile

Out of 1723 buildings in this neighborhood, 1189 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
