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 1993
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 three-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 747 19th Avenue in the Central Richmond district, owned by Salvatore & Rosina Cirelli, was constructed in 1993 following a vertical and horizontal addition that built onto the property's existing foundation. The most recent significant building improvement was completed in July 2023, involving the replacement of existing wood siding over an area of 135 square feet at a cost of $7,000. The building underwent a routine apartment housing inspection in January 2008, which identified several violations related to safety and security, including the need for self-closing devices on exterior doors, gas utility shutoff tool requirements, posting of gas meter instructional diagrams, and removal of egress obstructions. All these violations were promptly abated by February 12, 2008.

The property has maintained general compliance with housing codes since the 2008 inspection, with no active violations on record. A total of three housing inspections have been documented: one in 2008 (resolved), one in 2000 (resolved), and one in 1984 related to Dahi compliance (resolved). Recent activity around the property has primarily involved external maintenance and public service matters, including a 2023 pavement defect report that remains open, a 2024 garbage/debris issue that was resolved, and various parking-related concerns. Additionally, there has been one noise complaint recorded in 2019, which was accepted but generally noted for department use. Planning records indicate various proposals over the years, including a parking expansion plan, though these have not materialized as active projects.

Risk rating

How 747 19Th 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
69thpercentile

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 698 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

Owner's portfolio size

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.
