Rent & eviction protection

Is 569-571 Arguello Blvd 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 1953
2 or more units

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 1953
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 5-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 569-571 Arguello Blvd in San Francisco's Inner Richmond district, owned by Jlees Property LLC, was constructed in 1953 and has undergone several significant structural and safety improvements over the years. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory seismic retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $76,000, achieving Tier 3 Soft Story compliance with a Certificate of Final Completion issued. The property has maintained basic maintenance requirements, including street space permits in 2019, plumbing updates (house trap work in 2012), and electrical service modifications in 2017.

The building experienced several safety-related issues between 2001 and 2016, including a routine safety inspection in 2016 that identified multiple fire and security violations, such as the need for carbon monoxide alarms, fire extinguisher servicing, and repairs to wood stairs, though these were subsequently abated. Earlier violations in 2001 regarding stair repairs and security requirements were also addressed. Historical maintenance work includes foundation underpinning in 2005, reroofing in 2002, and various repairs to stairs and other structural elements. More recently, from 2020 to 2024, there have been multiple reports of parking violations near the property, particularly regarding driveway blocking, though these are external issues not directly related to building safety or conditions.

Risk rating

How 569-571 Arguello Blvd'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
27thpercentile

Out of 1723 buildings in this neighborhood, 1258 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.
