Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights, SF 94110 3617027 3 units · 3 fl · 1900

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 3390 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 before 1979
Built 1900
2 or more units

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 1900
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

Located at 3390 22nd Street in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood, this three-story multi-family residential building with commercial space was constructed in 1900 and contains three residential units along with ground-level commercial space. The property, currently owned by Sakumoto Gale L Trustee, has experienced a number of maintenance and public safety incidents over the past two years. Most recently, in 2024, there were reports of graffiti on the mailbox, and earlier that same year, there was an unverified report of an encampment. The building's vicinity has faced recurring issues with street cleanliness, evidenced by multiple reports of loose garbage in mid-2023, while May 2023 saw several incidents of non-offensive graffiti affecting public infrastructure including a bike rack and a parking sign. The property has also been involved in some notable planning activities, including an approved change allowing piano entertainment at The Lone Palm bar, located within the commercial portion of the building, under the NC-1 District regulations.

The building's location has experienced persistent urban challenges typical of many San Francisco neighborhoods, particularly during the periods of 2022-2024, with the majority of reported incidents being related to street cleaning and graffiti. While many of these issues have been resolved through proper channels, they represent ongoing maintenance and neighborhood quality challenges in the immediate area. The property's commercial component, housing The Lone Palm, has operated under special permitted conditions allowing for entertainment uses, indicating a blend of residential and commercial activities at this historic site.

Risk rating

How 3390 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
22ndpercentile

Out of 1278 buildings in this neighborhood, 997 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
