Rent & eviction protection

Is 615 Monterey Blvd 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

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-story multi-family residential building at 615 Monterey Blvd in Sunnyside, owned by 615 Monterey Blvd Llc, consists of 5 units and was constructed in 1959. The property has undergone several significant upgrades over the past two decades, with recent work including a 2015 sewer line replacement under the sidewalk. Between 2006 and 2010, multiple units received window replacements, and unit renovations were completed in 2007 and 2008 including kitchen and bathroom remodels in units 2 and 3. All building permits have been properly completed, with the last major interior work occurring in 2008.

The building's historical maintenance record shows several routine inspections through Housing Inspection Services, with the most recent having occurred in 2008. A cluster of violations was recorded in 2003, including issues with smoke detectors, emergency exits, security lighting, wood stairs, and exterior elements, though all were resolved by March 2003. The property has no active violations or complaints as of October 2023. Recent 311 calls from 2023-2024 have primarily concerned external issues such as tree maintenance needs (including lifted sidewalk roots), sidewalk cleaning, and waste removal, though most recent tree-related complaints have been handled under the city’s Prop-E program and a current tree maintenance request remains open. The building's overall record suggests consistent maintenance of internal systems and periodic unit upgrades, with more recent attention required for exterior elements like trees and sidewalks.

Risk rating

How 615 Monterey Blvd'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

Out of 129 buildings in this neighborhood, 94 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.

Neighborhood location

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

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 32.9%
Moderate concern 21.3%
Severe concern 45.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
