Rent & eviction protection

Is 2030-2034 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 before 1979
Built 1925

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

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

The property at 2030-2034 Irving Street in the Central Sunset neighborhood is a two-story multi-family residential building with four units, built in 1925 and currently owned by the Pik Kwan Li Revocable Trust. The building experienced significant fire-related damage in December 2018, with substantial impacts on the ground floor west side alley and second-floor southwest bedrooms, leading to violations that required $75,000 in repairs completed in 2019, including electrical system restoration and lightwell repairs. The building underwent substantial renovations in 2009, including bathroom and kitchen remodels on the second floor, installation of a tankless water heater, and window replacements. More recently, in 2021, an additional gas meter was installed, indicating possible utility upgrades.

The property has faced several maintenance and safety issues over the years, including a 2009 complaint about mold, water damage, and plumbing problems that resulted in multiple violations requiring repairs to various building systems. In 2023, there was an active complaint regarding an awning at the Sun Maxim Cafe. More recently, the property has experienced recurring maintenance issues as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in late 2024 and early 2025, primarily related to graffiti and debris on and around the property. While these recent reports are generally not critical to resident safety, they suggest ongoing maintenance attention is required. The building's documented history shows periods of both significant improvements and maintenance challenges, with the most substantial recent work being associated with fire damage recovery rather than routine upkeep.

Risk rating

How 2030-2034 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
20thpercentile

Out of 814 buildings in this neighborhood, 651 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
