Rent & eviction protection

Is 152 Beaver 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.

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 two-unit multi-family residential building at 152 Beaver Street in Corona Heights, constructed in 1929, has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over its lifetime. Most notably, in September 2022, a major renovation project was proposed to remodel the upper unit, adding a new fourth story with various living spaces and amenities, though this permit was ultimately withdrawn. The building has experienced recurring issues with its sewer infrastructure, evidenced by multiple maintenance cases including a sewage backup in November 2022, a missing side sewer vent cover in February 2021, and a damaged vent cover in October 2024. Recent maintenance records show ongoing concerns with exterior maintenance, including an overgrown tree blocking the sidewalk (December 2024), water leak (December 2024), and several incidents of garbage and debris accumulation in the vicinity.

The property's maintenance history includes several completed projects, such as reroofing work in 2007 ($11,010), installation of garage door openers in 2006 ($13,000), termite remediation in 1986, and multiple window replacements in the 1990s. A deck construction on the roof was documented and abated between January and May 2008. The building has also experienced some exterior maintenance issues in recent years, including graffiti removal (2022), though these incidents appear to have been resolved promptly. While the proposed major renovation work was withdrawn, its initial application in 2022 suggested significant planned improvements to the property, though this was not ultimately pursued. The property has undergone regular maintenance and improvements over the years, with particular attention given to roof and window updates, as well as addressing structural and infrastructure concerns as they arise.

Risk rating

How 152 Beaver 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
90thpercentile

Out of 348 buildings in this neighborhood, 35 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

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.
