Rent & eviction protection

Is 3890-3892 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 1908
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.

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 two-unit residential building at 3890-3892 22nd Street, owned by Aida Mitchell, has undergone several significant renovations since its construction in 1908. Most recently, in 2023, the property has experienced multiple maintenance issues requiring attention, including electrical work and construction without permits (complaints filed in April 2023), for which the owner initiated drywall, cabinet, and electrical updates in compliance with the complaints. Other recent work includes the installation of new gas pipes throughout the building (June 2023), bathroom renovations (April 2023), and electrical system upgrades (April 2023), suggesting ongoing maintenance and improvement efforts. The building previously faced notable safety concerns, including a 2006 violation regarding inadequate handrails on stairs with a significant elevation difference, though this was eventually resolved by 2013. Earlier improvements include window replacements for both units (2015), front siding replacement and dry rot repairs (2015), and an underground electrical service upgrade (2005).

The property has experienced various maintenance and service issues in recent months, as evidenced by 311 calls, including concerns about tree roots damaging the sidewalk (2023 and 2024), building inspection requests (2024), and multiple graffiti incidents (2023-2024). Historical records show that in the 1990s, there was a heating system issue that was promptly addressed. While many past violations and complaints have been resolved, as of September 2024, there are still some open maintenance issues related to the building and surrounding infrastructure. The regular pattern of maintenance and upgrading work suggests the owner is actively addressing both historical and current building requirements, though some recent permit compliance issues indicate occasional oversights in construction protocol adherence.

Risk rating

How 3890-3892 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
20thpercentile

Out of 1278 buildings in this neighborhood, 1022 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
