Rent & eviction protection

Is 1434 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 1964

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.

Built 1964
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

1434 Irving Street is a two-story, multi-family residential building with commercial space, constructed in 1964 and currently owned by Kafong Holdings LLC. The property has undergone significant recent improvements, most notably in 2021-2022 when the ground floor was renovated and converted into a veterinary clinic, including comprehensive interior work valued at over $307,000, installation of heating/cooling units, exhaust fans, and specialized plumbing for animal treatment tables. The building has also received notable environmentally-friendly upgrades, including a substantial solar panel installation in late 2024, featuring 58 PV modules with a total DC rating of 36.05 kW, showing the owner's commitment to sustainable infrastructure.

The property's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, including a complete reroofing project in 2007. Recent municipal service calls from 2023-2025 primarily relate to street maintenance issues, such as sidewalk defects, debris, and urban maintenance matters, rather than building-specific concerns. While there have been several 311 calls regarding homelessness and street cleaning in the vicinity of the property, these are external urban environment issues rather than building-related problems. The most recent significant building modifications were completed in 2022, converting the ground floor into a veterinary clinic, which included electrical improvements for specialized equipment and cooling systems. The building has a long history of permitted improvements dating back to 1988, including interior alterations and roofing work, though some permits from the late 1980s and early 1990s show as expired without completion records.

Risk rating

How 1434 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
96thpercentile

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 60 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

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Neighborhood location

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

Property class: apartment building

Apartment building — this property classification influences expected violation rates.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.
