Rent & eviction protection

Is 3224-3248 22Nd 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.

Built 1885

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 property at 3224-3248 22nd Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood is a three-story, multi-family residential building with 11 units, constructed in 1885 and currently owned by M Dattani Credit Trust. The building has undergone significant improvements in recent years, particularly in fire safety infrastructure, including the installation of a comprehensive sprinkler system throughout the basement and ground floor in 2020, and a sprinkler monitoring system in 2019. Recent developments include an active permit from October 2023 for changing the restaurant use classification from limited to full-service, which is crucial for the current tenant, Al Carajo, to obtain an ABC Type 41 license for beer sales.

The building has experienced various maintenance and safety issues historically, with notable violations in 2002 related to interior surfaces, including damaged ceilings, walls, windows, and floor coverings, though these were abated by 2004. There were multiple complaints regarding blocked exits and alarm systems between 2005 and 2015, all of which were corrected. Of particular concern is an active complaint from June 2024 regarding unauthorized plumbing modifications for an ice machine installation. The property has undergone several significant improvements, including bathroom and kitchen renovations, the installation of new fire safety systems, and various plumbing updates. Recent 311 calls in early 2025 suggest ongoing issues with garbage and debris management in the surrounding area, though these are being actively resolved.

Risk rating

How 3224-3248 22Nd 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
8thpercentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 2190 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

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Building size

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

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

Number of units

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