Rent & eviction protection

Is 1600-1602 24Th 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 1927

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 1927
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 1600-1602 24th Avenue in the Central Sunset neighborhood is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1927. This duplex has undergone several significant renovations and faced multiple regulatory challenges over its history. Most recently, in 2022, bathroom renovations were completed at a cost of $2,000. In 2020-2021, substantial work was performed to relocate the kitchen and convert existing kitchen space to a study room on the third floor, with associated plumbing and electrical work costing $40,000. A notable period of compliance enforcement occurred in 2006 when the Department initiated abatement proceedings regarding an illegal dwelling unit and improper rear yard paving. This situation was eventually resolved in 2010, with the rear yard issue specifically addressing unauthorized concrete paving of approximately 575 square feet without proper drainage. The building has been maintained with several significant improvements, including kitchen and bathroom remodels, window replacements, and front stucco repairs completed between 2001-2002. Recent 311 calls from 2024 predominantly relate to street-level issues such as sidewalk conditions, parking violations, and debris cleanup, with the property itself showing no active building violations or complaints.

Risk rating

How 1600-1602 24Th 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
61stpercentile

Out of 814 buildings in this neighborhood, 317 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.
