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 1986
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
May be covered by AB 1482. The building is old enough for the statewide rent cap (5% + regional CPI, capped at 10% per year) and just-cause protection after 12 months of tenancy.

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 multi-family residential building at 4035-4037 Irving Street in San Francisco's Outer Sunset neighborhood, owned by Choi Living Trust, was constructed in 1986 following the demolition of a two-family dwelling in May 1985. The property, which consists of three residential units, received a new roof in 2014 at a cost of $13,000, representing the most recent major maintenance work on record.

The building and its surroundings have experienced a notable frequency of parking-related incidents over the past couple of years, particularly in 2022, with multiple reports of driveway blocking between January and August 2022, including at least one citation issued in June 2022. The property also had two instances of abandoned vehicles reported in early 2022, both of which were determined to involve stolen vehicles. Additionally, there was one reported incident of graffiti in November 2021, described as offensive, though this claim was marked as having no response from PG&E after one month. The most recent complaints have occurred in March 2023, with two reports of driveway blocking, though in both cases, officers were either unable to locate the vehicles or could not validate the reported issues. While the parking enforcement issues are noteworthy, particularly in terms of their potential impact on resident convenience, there are no recorded safety incidents or structural concerns on file, and the building appears to be maintained according to required standards with the completed reroofing project from 2014.

Risk rating

How 4035-4037 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
47thpercentile

Out of 632 buildings in this neighborhood, 335 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

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