Rent & eviction protection

Is 4027 Noriega St 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 1919

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

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.

Built 1919
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 4027 Noriega Street in San Francisco's Outer Sunset neighborhood is a 2-story, multi-family residential building constructed in 1919, containing three units plus a storefront. Currently owned by Bozionelos Jim, the building has undergone significant recent changes, particularly concerning the commercial portion. Most notably, the ground-floor space transitioned from a paint store to "Muscle Beach" fitness gym, with unauthorized modifications including four skylights, new signage, and electrical work, which led to an active building violation filed in February 2024. Despite these violations, a permit was issued in August 2024 for the gym conversion and associated alterations, suggesting attempts to legalize the changes. The building has experienced persistent issues with noise, particularly regarding early-morning disturbances from gym operations, with multiple 311 calls about excessive noise recorded between August 2024 and January 2025. Infrastructure improvements are evident, including completed sewer lateral replacement in July 2023 and gas houseline extension work in May 2023. The property has a history of tenant buyouts, with one recorded in November 2021 for $37,600.

The recent commercial modifications and their impact on the residential portion of the building are of particular note, with complaints about lack of soundproofing between the gym and adjacent residences. The property has seen multiple enforcement actions and resident complaints regarding unauthorized work, though there appears to be an ongoing effort to bring the gym's operations into compliance through proper permitting processes. The building's dual-use as a multi-family residential and commercial space continues to generate regulatory and resident concern, particularly around noise and construction compliance issues.

Risk rating

How 4027 Noriega St'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
6thpercentile
