Inner Richmond, SF 94118 1537020A 3 units · 2 fl · 1914

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 1632-1634 Anza St 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.

Built 1914
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 1632-1634 Anza St is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building located in the Inner Richmond neighborhood. Built in 1914 and currently owned by Survivors Trust, this flats/duplex style building has undergone several significant changes over its history. The most recent major maintenance work was completed in 2017 when the building received a $14,800 reroofing project. The building had notable fire safety violations in 2002, when multiple issues were identified including the need for smoke detectors in the lobby and stairs, as well as concerns about combustible storage requiring either removal or the installation of automatic fire sprinklers; however, all these violations were abated by July 24, 2002.

The property has seen regular maintenance and compliance work, with building permits dating back to 1989 when there was an effort to bring the building into code compliance, though this permit expired. More recently, there have been numerous parking-related issues noted in the vicinity of the building, particularly between 2023-2024, with multiple citations issued for sidewalk parking and other parking violations, including several incidents involving blocked driveways. These parking enforcement actions, while not directly affecting the building's condition, indicate ongoing challenges with parking management in the area. The most recent complaints in 2024 involved issues with garbage and debris on the street, which were promptly resolved by Recology.

Risk rating

How 1632-1634 Anza St'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
16thpercentile

Out of 1723 buildings in this neighborhood, 1447 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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.
