Noe Valley, SF 94114 3651019 6 units · 2 fl · 1964

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 3830 24Th 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 1964
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 1964
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 6-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 3830 24th Street in Noe Valley, owned by Lee Bock Foo & Susan L Trus, was constructed in 1964 and has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with particular attention to safety and structural integrity. Most notably, the building completed mandatory seismic retrofit work in 2014-2015, including foundation reinforcement, installation of new steel moment frames, and electrical upgrades with Ufer grounding systems, which brought the building into compliance with San Francisco's soft-story program requirements as a Tier 3 property. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, including reroofing projects in 1993 and 2016, vinyl siding installation in 1995, and concrete removal work in 2019.

The property has experienced some safety-related issues in the past, though these have been promptly addressed. In December 2001, violations were issued regarding fire extinguisher maintenance and smoke detector requirements, all of which were abated by January 2002. A routine fire alarm incident occurred in 2006 due to system malfunction, and there have been several false alarm activations recorded by the fire department, none of which resulted in injuries or actual fires. The building has maintained its housing inspection compliance status, with routine inspections recorded in 2001, 2007, and 2015, showing no ongoing violations. More recently, there has been a pattern of exterior maintenance needs noted through 311 calls, primarily related to abandoned furniture and debris on the street, though these issues appear to be promptly resolved by city services. Three parking-related complaints were recorded in 2024, and a graffiti incident in July 2024 was also resolved, suggesting ongoing attention to building maintenance and neighborhood relations.

Risk rating

How 3830 24Th 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
35thpercentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 1221 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.

Number of units

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

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.
