Rent & eviction protection

Is 2390-2392 28Th 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.

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.

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 2390-2392 28th Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1944, currently owned by the Sallaberry '90-by Pass Trust. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with the most recent major renovation occurring in 2020-2021, involving comprehensive bathroom and kitchen remodels with an approximate cost of $41,000, including both plumbing and electrical work. Prior improvements include earlier kitchen and bathroom renovations in 2009, window replacements, and utility upgrades. The building's infrastructure has been maintained with a new roof installation completed in 2000, and substantial electrical system upgrades were performed in 2009, including the installation of new circuits and receptacles.

The building has experienced some documented issues requiring attention, most notably following construction work in 2021, when complaints were filed regarding debris falling from the roof onto the sidewalk, though these complaints were eventually marked as not active. A smoke detector activation incident was recorded with no fire or civilian injuries. The surrounding area has experienced typical urban maintenance issues, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls between 2020-2024, primarily relating to street cleaning and sidewalk maintenance. These calls included reports of garbage and debris, illegal postings, and general cleaning needs, which were all resolved according to city records. A variety of building permits and improvements over the years suggest regular maintenance and upgrading of building systems, though prospective tenants should note the recent construction-related complaint and its resolution status.

Risk rating

How 2390-2392 28Th 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
89thpercentile

Out of 255 buildings in this neighborhood, 28 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
