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 1979
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 property at 1379-1381 44th Avenue in San Francisco's Outer Sunset neighborhood is a two-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1979, currently owned by Louie Kelvin & Genevieve Rev. The building has undergone significant renovations in recent years, with major improvements carried out in 2019 including comprehensive remodels of kitchens and bathrooms in both units, window replacements, and updates to electrical systems, heating, and water heating equipment. The total investment in these improvements was approximately $185,000, with additional gas pipe repairs completed later that year. The plumbing and mechanical systems were comprehensively upgraded in 2021, with work including the installation of new shower pans and complete replacement of furnaces and water heaters in both units.

The property has experienced ongoing issues with parking violations, particularly regarding blocked driveways, with multiple enforcement requests recorded between 2023 and 2025. These parking enforcement calls, which show a pattern of repeat incidents, typically resulted in citations being issued, though some cases ended with officers being unable to locate the offending vehicles. A notable pattern emerges around vehicles consistently associated with these violations, particularly a silver Mercedes G wagon and various dark-colored vehicles. While these parking issues do not directly affect the building's structural integrity or safety, they may impact resident convenience. The building's recent renovation history suggests a well-maintained property, with all major systems updated and improvements focused on both aesthetics and functionality.

Risk rating

How 1379-1381 44Th 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
89thpercentile

Out of 632 buildings in this neighborhood, 70 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
