Rent & eviction protection

Is 1382-1384 47Th 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 1904

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 1904
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 property at 1382-1384 47th Avenue in San Francisco's Outer Sunset neighborhood is a one-story, two-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1904, currently owned by He Qinghua. The building's maintenance history includes several permitted repairs from 2000, such as dry rot remediation in the garage and kitchen renovations in unit 1382, as well as a roofing project; however, these permits have since expired. More concerning are the recurring issues documented through multiple housing complaints between 2012-2017, all centered around an alleged illegally converted garage unit. These complaints, which remain in an inactive status with Housing Inspection Services, cited problems related to over-occupancy, garbage accumulation, pest infestations, and parking issues. The most recent housing-related activity was a building use complaint filed in December 2024, which is currently open and accepted.

The property has been the subject of numerous municipal service calls in recent years, particularly regarding parking violations and sidewalk access issues. Between March 2024 and August 2024, there were multiple documented incidents of vehicles blocking driveways or parking on sidewalks, with at least two citations issued. There were also several reports of garbage and debris issues being addressed by Recology and street cleaning services. The most recent of these incidents occurred in August 2023, involving loose garbage on the street. The frequency of these parking and sanitation-related complaints suggests ongoing challenges with neighborhood impact, particularly regarding access and waste management.

Risk rating

How 1382-1384 47Th 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
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.

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.
