Rent & eviction protection

Is 4301 17Th 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 property at 4301 17th Street in Corona Heights is a two-story, six-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Ord LLC. The building has undergone several significant repairs and maintenance work over the past decades, with the most recent notable work being an emergency repair on the stairway landing floor and railing in February 2022, which cost $7,000. Two active routine housing inspections were filed in 2022-2023, and there have been consistent maintenance issues throughout the building's history. A significant incident occurred in 2011 when extensive mold growth was discovered in Unit 104 during shower wall repairs, with reports indicating improper handling of the mold situation. The building has maintained active status for routine inspections, though many historical violations from 2006 related to deck repairs, handrails, and security requirements were abated by October 2006.

The property has seen various infrastructure improvements, including a roof replacement in 2013, water damage repairs in 2010, and installations of modern amenities such as an electric water heater and attic furnace in 2010. The building experienced unauthorized renovation work in 2010, which prompted a complaint that was ultimately resolved. A smoke detector malfunction was recorded as the only fire-related incident, with no civilian injuries reported. More recently, there have been several service calls in the surrounding area, including graffiti removal, street defect reports, and abandoned vehicle responses, though these are external to the building itself.

Risk rating

How 4301 17Th 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
12thpercentile

Out of 348 buildings in this neighborhood, 306 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
