Rent & eviction protection

Is 790-792 32Nd 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.

Built 1927
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 three-unit multi-family residential building at 790-792 32nd Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Survivors Trust, has a documented history dating back to its 1927 construction. The building has undergone several maintenance and improvement projects, including a complete reroofing in 2008 costing $13,900 and a top-floor bathroom remodel in 2001 valued at $3,000. In March 2002, the property experienced a series of fire safety and security violations related to door closure requirements, all of which were promptly addressed and abated by May 15, 2002.

The building's most recent documented issues primarily relate to external maintenance and community concerns, with multiple reports of garbage and debris on the sidewalk in late 2024, all of which were resolved by Recology. There have also been several parking enforcement calls in 2024, resulting in at least two citations being issued. Open cases from 2024 include a request to the MTA Paint Shop and a sign-related issue from December. A routine housing inspection was conducted in 2011, and while there was one service-related fire call recorded, it did not result in any civilian injuries. The building's maintenance record shows regular upkeep, with no active violations or complaints currently on file.

Risk rating

How 790-792 32Nd 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
7thpercentile

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 2092 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
