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 1992
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 property at 671 24th Avenue in San Francisco's Central Richmond district is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1992, currently owned by John T S Hung & Siew Yoong. The building underwent significant improvements in 1991 with both vertical and horizontal additions completed successfully. A notable sequence of violations occurred in April 2016, when multiple issues were identified including weatherproofing problems on the side wall, interior surface concerns including peeling paint (with lead hazard warnings), and other building violations, all of which were resolved by September 2016 following the issuance of several Notices of Violation. Earlier issues included a 2002 complaint about water leakage from the rear side of the building, which was promptly addressed.

The property has experienced various maintenance and environmental challenges over the years. A 1989 reroofing project appears to have expired without completion. In 2018, there was a reported problem with a collapsed sidewalk around a utility vault cover that required attention. The building faced some safety concerns in 2016-2018 with multiple instances of abandoned vehicles reported in the vicinity and issues with parking on the sidewalk, though these were typically resolved promptly. A fire-related complaint was logged in October 2018 and closed in May 2019 with conditions corrected. The most recent recorded incident was a general cleaning issue regarding loose garbage on the street in 2020, which was resolved. The property has maintained its legal compliance status since resolving the 2016 violations, with no active building violations on record as of the latest data.

Risk rating

How 671 24Th 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
