Rent & eviction protection

Is 4532 Irving St 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 1961

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 1961
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 4532 Irving Street is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Outer Sunset neighborhood, built in 1961 and currently owned by Danny & Suzanna Woo 2009 Family Trust. The building has undergone several significant improvements over its lifetime, most notably in 2017 when the owners invested $28,000 in replacing ten windows with new aluminum wood clad windows and updating the wood siding at the front of the building. The building's maintenance record shows proper upkeep, including a completed reroofing project in 1992.

The property has a history of routine safety inspections by Housing Inspection Services, with documented inspections in 2000, 2002, 2009, and 2018, indicating regular oversight of building safety standards. In 2000, there were two fire safety violations related to combustible storage and gas meter instruction postings, though these were promptly abated within three weeks of being reported. More recently, from late 2021 through 2024, there have been several reports of parking violations involving driveway blockages and some instances of street cleaning concerns, including a recent incident of furniture debris and transit shelter platform issues in 2024. The building's compliance record shows no active violations or complaints, with all recorded issues having been resolved through appropriate channels.

Risk rating

How 4532 Irving St'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
9thpercentile

Out of 632 buildings in this neighborhood, 575 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

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Neighborhood location
