Rent & eviction protection

Is 1465 Oakdale Ave 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 1926

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 1926
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 1465 Oakdale Avenue is a 2-story, 3-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1926, currently owned by Rafael Garcia Sanchez. The building has experienced numerous significant issues over the past several years, with the most pressing concerns relating to multiple illegal units and safety violations. As of March 2024, there are active building violations including unapproved units, improperly installed water heaters, roof drainage issues, and various maintenance deficiencies. There are also serious resident health and safety concerns, including reports of no heat, mold, plumbing problems, and electrical issues documented between 2023-2024. Regular inspections have revealed problems with smoke detectors, handrails, hazardous mechanical equipment, and various sanitation issues. The building's history includes three tenant buyouts in 2016, one of which received $32,900.

The property's administrative history shows efforts to address unauthorized units, with permits issued in 2015 to remove illegal kitchens and restrooms, though recent violations indicate continued concerns. Multiple fire safety complaints regarding blocked exits were documented between 2014 and 2024, though most were promptly corrected. The building has undergone various repairs and maintenance work over the years, including roof patching, window replacement, and plumbing system upgrades, with the most recent work in 2024 involving air duct replacement and gas line maintenance. The city is currently reviewing a proposal to reduce an unauthorized fence on the property and address historical unit legalization issues, while multiple active complaints are scheduled for director hearings in March 2024. Recent 311 calls from late 2024 have primarily concerned debris removal and plumbing issues, including a sewage backup discharge in October 2024.

Risk rating

How 1465 Oakdale Ave'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
6thpercentile

Out of 382 buildings in this neighborhood, 359 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
