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 2006
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

50 Clarion Alley is a 4-story, 3-unit multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood, constructed in 2006 by 84 Sycamore St LLC. The property underwent a significant transformation from 2003-2006, involving the demolition of two existing structures (a two-family front building and a single-family back building) and the construction of the new three-unit building, which included comprehensive fire safety upgrades. During the construction period, there were serious concerns about the stability of the existing structures, with complaints filed in 2005 regarding potential roof collapse risks. These were addressed through appropriate permits and work.

The building's construction phase included rigorous safety measures, with the installation of complete fire sprinkler systems, new fire alarm monitoring, and comprehensive electrical systems including multiple circuits, panels, and safety features. The project demonstrated compliance with all necessary regulations, including Mission District Interim Controls, and achieved CEQA clearance before construction. Since completion, the building has experienced standard urban maintenance issues typical of the neighborhood, as evidenced by recent 311 calls primarily related to sidewalk cleaning, graffiti, and waste management. Notably, there was one serious incident involving a gas leak (location unspecified) recorded by the fire department, though no civilian injuries were reported. The most recent building-related concerns have been regarding exterior maintenance issues such as graffiti and debris, which have been addressed through normal municipal channels. The property's history shows proper management of construction-related safety concerns, with all significant building codes and safety measures implemented during the construction period.

Risk rating

How 50 Clarion Aly'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
