Rent & eviction protection

Is 1347 10Th 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 1940
2 or more units

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 1940
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

1347 10th Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1940, currently owned by the Chow Family Trust. The property has undergone significant improvements, most recently a comprehensive kitchen remodel completed in July 2023, which included new cabinets, countertops, flooring, and associated plumbing and electrical work at a cost of $15,000. This followed an earlier notable modification in 1986 when a vertical and horizontal extension was added to the building. The recent kitchen renovation involved substantial updates including the installation of a 50-amp subpanel, two new lights, and multiple electrical outlets, along with the relocation of plumbing and gas lines.

The building's maintenance and compliance history shows regular upkeep, with no major safety concerns reported. While there have been several 311 calls regarding street parking issues near the property between 2019 and 2021, most were promptly resolved through enforcement action, with citations issued in several cases and some vehicles unable to be located. There was one instance of hazardous materials reported in January 2021, which was determined to involve only light dust from construction work. The property's historical records include approved variance applications for a rear yard addition and second-story construction, suggesting plans for expanding the living space and accommodating additional unit features. The building's recent renovations and history of proper permits suggest active management and maintenance of the property, with no documented code violations or safety concerns.

Risk rating

How 1347 10Th 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
81stpercentile

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 284 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
