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 1983
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
May be covered by AB 1482. The building is old enough for the statewide rent cap (5% + regional CPI, capped at 10% per year) and just-cause protection after 12 months of tenancy.

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 14-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 2593 23rd Avenue in Parkside, owned by 2593 23rd Ave LLC, was built in 1983 and has undergone several significant improvements and faced various challenges over its history. Most recently, in 2024, the building completed a major fire alarm system upgrade costing nearly $57,000, which included installing low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas to meet safety standards. The property has seen regular maintenance and improvements, including a 2023 remodel of a physical therapy office, 2022 voluntary structural strengthening of the garage area, and historical roofing work in 1999 and 2014. The building's fire safety compliance has been a focus, with multiple inspections in 2023-2024 addressing extinguishers, sprinkler systems, and other fire safety elements, though some violations were noted in 2016 related to doors, exits, and elevator systems that were referred for hearing but have since been corrected.

Recent activities at the property indicate ongoing maintenance and some resident concerns, including a 2024 complaint about construction noise and recent issues with debris management outside the building. The property has undergone various office space modifications over the years, including creating accessible restrooms and updating facilities. Several 311 calls from late 2024 to early 2025 have been logged, primarily regarding sidewalk maintenance, parking violations, and debris removal, with most cases being resolved through appropriate channels. The building's management has generally addressed violations and complaints in a timely manner, with only a few matters currently listed as open, such as a sidewalk defect noted in August 2024 and some recent graffiti on the sidewalk.

Risk rating

How 2593 23Rd 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 percentile
2th percentile

Out of 255 buildings in this neighborhood, 250 are predicted to be safer.

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 size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 13.1%
Moderate concern 43.2%
Severe concern 43.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
