Rent & eviction protection

Is 600-610 33Rd 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 1952

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 1952
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, seven-unit multi-family residential building at 600-610 33rd Avenue in the Outer Richmond, owned by the Edward Phelan Trust and constructed in 1952, has undergone several significant safety and infrastructure improvements over recent years. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 under San Francisco's Tier 3 program, achieving compliance with seismic safety requirements. Major fire safety upgrades include a comprehensive fire alarm system replacement in 2021-2022, which involved installing low-frequency sounders in sleeping rooms, new pull stations, and integrating radio monitoring into the non-sprinklered building's safety infrastructure, representing a $15,475 investment in resident safety.

The building has experienced some maintenance and safety issues over its history, most notably in 2003 when multiple fire safety violations were documented, including problems with fire proofing, egress obstructions, and fire extinguisher maintenance, though these were all abated by August 2003. A more recent resident complaint from March 2024 concerns a privacy issue with a street-facing window in a second-floor unit, though this complaint is no longer active as of May 2024. The building's utility systems have also been improved over the years, with a significant electrical service upgrade completed in 2002 that included installing new sub-feeders and breaker panels for each unit. While there have been various 311 calls regarding the general area around the building (primarily concerning transit shelters and street cleaning), these are not directly related to the building's condition and have all been resolved through normal city processes.

Risk rating

How 600-610 33Rd 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
15thpercentile

Out of 1040 buildings in this neighborhood, 884 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
