Rent & eviction protection

Is 1590-1592 Funston 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 1946

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 1946
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 1590-1592 Funston Avenue property is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1946, currently owned by 1590-92 Funston Sf Llc. The building has undergone significant recent improvements, with major work completed between 2020-2023 including a substantial $480,000 renovation in 2020 creating rooms in the lower level with light well infills, adding an occupied roof deck with access hatch, and interior modifications. This project was accompanied by electrical upgrades including a 200-amp service installation with three meters and distribution panels. More recent improvements include the installation of a Level 2 EV charger in October 2023, and structural modifications in March 2023 to accommodate an additional garage parking spot.

The property has received comprehensive plumbing and electrical system upgrades, including complete service installations for both units featuring all necessary amenities. However, there have been some concerning patterns in the immediate vicinity of the building, particularly in 2023-2024, with multiple reports of garbage and debris issues (including medical waste and illegal postings) on the street and sidewalk areas. These external maintenance issues may impact resident experience, though they appear primarily related to public space management. The building's recent improvements suggest active maintenance and modernization by the current ownership, particularly in terms of safety systems, parking facilities, and sustainability features like EV charging capacity. The property has also undergone appropriate planning review, including a permitted roof deck installation with glass railing and lightwell modifications, with all work completed under proper permits and inspections.

Risk rating

How 1590-1592 Funston 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

Grade A–B — Low risk

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

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.
