Rent & eviction protection

Is 1384 32Nd 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 1941

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 1941
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-unit residential building at 1384 32nd Avenue in San Francisco's Central Sunset neighborhood, owned by Richard M & Carina M Villaf, has experienced several significant maintenance issues over recent years. Most notably, from late 2022 to September 2023, the property was cited for multiple housing code violations related to water intrusion and mold issues, including problems with window weatherproofing and interior surface mold/mildew. These violations originated from tenant complaints about persistent water leaks affecting clothing and possessions, which appeared to be inadequately addressed through partial repairs and resealing attempts. The building's maintenance history includes two roofing projects, one completed in 2012 at a cost of $5,500, and an earlier permit from 1996, though there are no records of other major improvements or renovations to this two-story flats/duplex structure built in 1941. Additional historical records show a lead paint concern and potential termite issue reported in 2001, though this was promptly addressed within days, and the building has experienced two documented sewage backup incidents in 2014 and 2020, both of which were resolved by city services.

Risk rating

How 1384 32Nd 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
12thpercentile

Out of 814 buildings in this neighborhood, 716 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
