Rent & eviction protection

Is 1375-1377 5Th 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 before 1979
Built 1922

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 1922
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 1375-1377 5th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood is a 2-story, 3-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1922, currently owned by the Selma Wilson Revocable Living Trust. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, including a window replacement project in 2010 costing $6,583 that involved installing 15 new windows in existing openings, a stair repair project in the backyard completed in 2005 costing $10,000, and a foundation upgrade with grade beam installation at the garage in 2000 (permit expired). Of particular note was a cluster of violations in March 2006 (all resolved by September 2006) related to safety concerns, including the need for handrails, combustible storage issues, and gas utility shutoff tools - all of which were subsequently addressed.

More recent concerns have emerged regarding the building's exterior infrastructure, with multiple 311 calls in 2023 reporting sidewalk issues including collapse and lifting due to tree roots, and a missing side sewer vent cover. A utility excavation issue was temporarily resolved in February 2021. The building's maintenance history included regular safety inspections in 1997, 1999, and 2013, with the most recent inspection raising concerns about a doorway blockage caused by an overly wide banister. Notably, there was one recorded fire-related incident involving a carbon monoxide detector activation due to a malfunction, though no civilian injuries were reported. The property has generally maintained a pattern of addressing violations and completing necessary repairs, though the recent sidewalk issues suggest ongoing maintenance needs in the building's external infrastructure.

Risk rating

How 1375-1377 5Th 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
40thpercentile

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 896 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Building age

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

Construction spend, owner's portfolio

Estimated permit value across all of this owner's buildings.
