Rent & eviction protection

Is 1359 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 before 1979
Built 1964
2 or more units
6 units
Property type

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.

15+ years since occupancy
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

The two-story, six-unit multi-family residential building at 1359 10th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood, owned by Octagon Properties LLC and constructed in 1964, has undergone several significant maintenance and safety upgrades over the past decade. Most notably, in March 2024, the building completed a major fire safety improvement project that included upgrading the fire alarm system to meet current San Francisco Fire Code requirements, replacing the fire panel, updating all devices for compatibility, and installing low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas. This work was accompanied by the installation of a new modified bitumen roof in 2021, covering approximately 2,000 square feet. The building has experienced three unintentional fire alarm activations in recent years, though none resulted in civilian injuries or indicated actual fires.

The property has maintained regular housing inspections, with routine inspections of common areas recorded in 2000, 2002, and 2010, all of which were promptly addressed and marked as not active. While there have been numerous parking enforcement issues reported in the vicinity of the building throughout 2024, with multiple citations issued for driveway blocking, these relate to street parking rather than building operations. The only other notable building system update on record was a water heater replacement in 2012, though this permit has since expired. The building's maintenance record suggests ongoing attention to major systems, particularly fire safety, with the most recent upgrades representing a significant investment in resident safety and comfort.

Risk rating

How 1359 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
71stpercentile

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 433 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Neighborhood location

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