Rent & eviction protection

Is 409-411 7Th 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 property at 409-411 7th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Richmond neighborhood is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1913, currently owned by David Yat F. Pang and Kat Wong. The building underwent significant remediation work in 2016 following multiple violations related to lead paint and weatherproofing issues, which were documented in a Notice of Violation filed in April 2016. The violation, categorized as a nuisance under section 1001-d of the SFHC, was addressed through various building permits for exterior stucco replacement work totaling approximately 350 square feet, with the work being completed by December 2016.

More recently, the property has experienced some infrastructure challenges, particularly regarding sewage systems, with two separate sewage backup incidents reported in October 2023. The building received attention from city services for various street maintenance issues in 2022 and 2023, including illegal postings, sidewalk cleaning, and waste removal. Historical records show earlier maintenance work on the property, including backyard stairs repairs in 2009 and reroofing in 1998. The building's most recent documented interactions with city services include medical assistance in 2022, though this was not directly related to building conditions. While some recent maintenance issues have emerged, it's noteworthy that the lead paint and weatherproofing violations from 2016 have been officially abated.

Risk rating

How 409-411 7Th 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
69thpercentile
