Rent & eviction protection

Is 650-652 10Th 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 1916

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 1916
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 650-652 10th Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1916, currently managed by the Hom Stanley Estate Of. The building has experienced recurring maintenance and safety issues over recent years, with the most significant being an active violation from 2017 (complaint #201785207) citing multiple problems including water damage, damaged walls, and interior surfaces requiring repairs. This violation has prompted several building permits for various repairs, including multiple stair replacements and weatherproofing work between 2018 and 2023, with the most recent permits issued in June 2023 for final inspections of previously approved work. Safety concerns have been a consistent theme, with multiple violations related to smoke detection systems, handrails, and building structure requiring attention.

Recent work in 2023 has focused on addressing exterior safety concerns, including removal of a wood utility ladder and repairs to handrails and weather protection systems, with an associated cost of $4,000. The building has a documented history of water heater issues, particularly in 2017, resulting in several violations and subsequent plumbing repairs. Other maintenance history includes electrical work for new laundry vent circuits in 2020, and various 311 calls relating to parking issues near the property between 2018 and 2024. The property has also required attention to address interior living conditions, with complaints about rodent issues and general maintenance concerns being reported through various channels. While several building permits have been issued and completed over the years, the active 2017 violations suggest some ongoing concerns regarding timely compliance with all required building codes and safety standards.

Risk rating

How 650-652 10Th 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
93rdpercentile

Out of 1723 buildings in this neighborhood, 121 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Owner's portfolio size

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