Augrented Insights
Initial analysis

The three-story, seven-unit building at 3180-3186 23rd Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood, owned by David S & Jayne Yee, has been experiencing significant maintenance and code compliance issues since at least 2024. Most recently, as of June 2026, there are active violations and complaints regarding vacant storefront construction without permits, while two active building violations from May 2024 concern an unauthorized garage door replacement and frame extension into the public right-of-way. The property has a documented history of serious safety concerns, including gas leak incidents in January 2024 that led to gas service shutdown and appliance issues, along with roof leaks and a collapsed ceiling.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 3180-3186 23Rd 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.

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.

Risk rating

How 3180-3186 23Rd 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
2ndpercentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 2332 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
