Augrented Insights
Initial analysis

The property at 945-947 Irving Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building with commercial space, constructed in 1916 and currently owned by George D. Paxinos. The building underwent reroofing work in 2005, which was properly permitted and completed at a cost of $7,850. A significant current concern is an active code enforcement complaint (filed June 2023) regarding a vacant commercial space that was previously occupied by a vacuum store, with no resolution date indicated. The property has experienced recurring maintenance and cleanliness issues over recent years, including multiple incidents of graffiti on the commercial portion of the building in 2022, though these were eventually resolved. In 2021, there was an open complaint regarding tree root damage to the sidewalk, and the same year there was one instance of illegal postings that was resolved.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 945-947 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.

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 1916
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.

Risk rating

How 945-947 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
4thpercentile

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 1433 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
