Rent & eviction protection

Is 1364-1368 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 before 1979
Built 1900

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 1900
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 5-unit building at 1364-1368 47th Avenue in the Outer Sunset, owned by Chew Tr 2010, is a 3-story multi-family residential structure built in 1900. The property has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance work over the past decades, with the most substantial updates occurring in 2014, including a comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodel ($60,000) with associated plumbing and electrical work, and the replacement of 40 feet of gas piping. More recently, in August 2023, there was a gas line gas test indicating issues with corroded and leaking underground gas lines, though this permit has since expired. The building experienced notable violations in September 2016, resulting in multiple citations that required repairs to interior walls, weather proofing on siding, electrical conduits, and other safety-related issues such as fire extinguisher recharging and mold remediation. All these violations were officially abated by November 29, 2016.

The property's history includes several maintenance and safety concerns worth noting. In 2018, there was a reported kitchen flooding issue that was promptly addressed within a week. An alarming incident occurred in 1997 when concerns were raised about unauthorized electrical work being conducted without permits, though this was resolved by 1998. The building has also had some minor recent complaints, including a construction noise complaint in January 2023 and various maintenance issues documented through 311 calls, though these were not directly related to building safety. The property's maintenance records show regular upkeep, including a reroofing project in 1996 (permit expired) and a code compliance update in 1986, suggesting ongoing attention to building standards over the years.

Risk rating

How 1364-1368 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
19thpercentile

Out of 632 buildings in this neighborhood, 512 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building age

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

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

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