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 2006
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
May be covered by AB 1482. The building is old enough for the statewide rent cap (5% + regional CPI, capped at 10% per year) and just-cause protection after 12 months of tenancy.

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 1609 Revere Avenue in San Francisco's Bayview neighborhood is a three-story, two-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 2006, owned by Gilbert & Stephanie O'Guinn. The building underwent significant construction in 2003-2005, including horizontal and vertical additions with a reported cost of $150,000, followed by extensive electrical work involving multiple permits for lighting, circuits, and subpanels between January and October 2005, totaling approximately 20 lights, 16 switches, 100 receptacles, and two subpanels. A notable building complaint was filed in February 2005 regarding unauthorized construction work and late-night operations during the rebuilding phase, though this complaint was quickly abated on the same day.

The property has demonstrated ongoing investment in infrastructure, with the most recent significant improvement being the installation of a solar PV system in November 2020, consisting of 19 modules with a total capacity of 7.6 kW DC. Recent concerns at the property have primarily centered around parking issues, with eight parking-related incidents reported between October 2024 and early 2025, including multiple citations for sidewalk parking violations. There were also two reports of dead animals in October 2024 and one instance of garbage and debris on the property in November 2024, though these were either addressed or determined to require no further action. The building's planning records show two proposals for additional construction work, including new stories and dwelling units, though both were either closed or withdrawn without implementation.

Risk rating

How 1609 Revere 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
97thpercentile

Out of 382 buildings in this neighborhood, 11 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
