Rent & eviction protection

Is 1333-1335 25Th 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.

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.

Annual rent increase cap

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-unit multi-family residential building at 1333-1335 25th Avenue in the Central Sunset neighborhood, owned by Carl Lee, was constructed in 1911 and has undergone several significant modifications over its lifetime. Most notably, in 2016-2017, the property faced a series of violations and complaints related to unauthorized construction work. In November 2016, residents reported construction activity beyond the scope of an issued permit for "damaged plywood" replacement, including unpermitted foundation work and fence removal. This led to multiple Notices of Violation (NOV) being issued, and the situation was only resolved through a subsequent permit in February 2017 to properly address the rear yard issues, including replacing the wooden fence and repairing the concrete foundation, which was completed at a cost of $2,000.

The building's earlier history shows various renovation attempts, including expired permits from 1986 for horizontal and vertical extensions with a new third-floor addition, and reroofing work in 2001. Since 2024, there has been a pattern of parking violations related to driveway blocking at the property, with at least eight incidents resulting in citations or failed enforcement attempts between August and December 2024, suggesting ongoing parking management challenges in the vicinity. This recent spike in parking enforcement activity, while not directly related to building conditions, may impact resident convenience and access.

Risk rating

How 1333-1335 25Th 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
91stpercentile

Out of 814 buildings in this neighborhood, 73 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.

Building age

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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