Rent & eviction protection

Is 2824-2826 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.

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 property at 2824-2826 24th Street in the Inner Mission is a 3-story, 5-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1939, currently owned by Bernard & Leona Fong Family Trust. The building has undergone several maintenance and improvement projects over the years, with the most significant recent work occurring in 2012 when substantial renovations were made to an ground floor storefront, including new entrance doors, storefront, counters, shelves, and associated plumbing and electrical work, costing approximately $70,000. The building's maintenance history shows attention to roofing needs in 1995 and 2004, and window improvements were completed in 1988 with the installation of aluminum windows.

Of particular note are several building violations and complaints from 2019 that remain partially unresolved as of their most recent update in 2024, involving issues with lead paint hazards and weatherproofing on the building's siding. These violations, filed on June 5, 2019, were documented through multiple notices and inspections, with a scheduled abatement date of December 17, 2024. The building has also experienced recurring graffiti issues in its vicinity, with multiple incidents reported in late 2024, including an unresolved case from January 2025. The property underwent routine housing inspections in 2003 and 2015, and there have been various park patrols and public works calls in the surrounding area, suggesting ongoing monitoring of both the building and its immediate environment. Recent planning records indicate a referral for market use and a proposal for "Five Markets" that is currently on hold.

Risk rating

How 2824-2826 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
17thpercentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 1975 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.

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.
