Rent & eviction protection

Is 1289-1291 43Rd 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 1952

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.

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

This three-story multi-family residential building located at 1289-1291 43rd Avenue in San Francisco's Outer Sunset neighborhood consists of two units and was built in 1952. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past 15 years, with the most substantial renovations occurring in 2013 when both units received kitchen modifications including pass-through openings between kitchen and dining areas, cabinet replacements, and new appliances, with the upper unit receiving additional window and door improvements. Prior to this, the building underwent major updates in 2009, including a complete window replacement (23 windows), reroofing, and electrical service upgrades with multiple new circuits. The building's mechanical systems were also addressed with furnace replacements in early 2009, though these permits are now listed as expired.

The property has been subject to numerous 311 calls between 2024 and 2025, primarily related to garbage and debris issues on the street, with eight reports of abandoned mattresses, furniture, and loose debris requiring cleanup. There were also instances of graffiti on ATT property in September and November 2024, both of which have been resolved. A parking enforcement action was taken for a blocked driveway in September 2024, resulting in a citation. The regular pattern of street cleaning calls suggests ongoing issues with waste disposal in the vicinity, though these external matters don't directly impact the building's internal conditions or systems.

Risk rating

How 1289-1291 43Rd 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 632 buildings in this neighborhood, 196 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
