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 1983
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 1275-1277 46th Avenue in San Francisco's Outer Sunset neighborhood is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1983, currently owned by 1275-77 - 46th Ave LLC. The building's history shows several maintenance activities, including a reroofing project in 1993 and two building use permits from the early 1980s related to the flats and duplex classification. Recent records from 2024 indicate multiple parking-related issues in the vicinity, with five parking enforcement calls between September and June, though most could not be validated or resulted in no citation, except for one sidewalk parking violation that resulted in a citation. Other recent incidents include a water meter cover replacement in June 2024, resolution of a missing side sewer vent cover issue, removal of sidewalk graffiti, and general cleaning requests, though a February cleaning request found nothing amiss. The building is documented with two approved rear yard variance requests related to constructing a new two-family dwelling with a 48-foot deep rear yard, though it remains unclear if any construction occurred based on these permits. All records indicate that cases, when resolved, were appropriately addressed through the responsible city agencies.

Risk rating

How 1275-1277 46Th 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

Grade A–B — Low risk

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.
