Rent & eviction protection

Is 1655-1657 Revere 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 1936
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 1936
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 two-unit residential building at 1655-1657 Revere Avenue in the Bayview neighborhood, owned by Rosbeg 102 LLC, was constructed in 1936 and is currently undergoing significant improvements. Most notably, there is an ongoing project to add an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) at the rear of the garage, which will include two bedrooms, a kitchen, and two bathrooms. This project, valued at $150,000, was initially permitted in November 2021, with subsequent plumbing and electrical work permits issued in July 2024 for bathroom and kitchen additions. Additionally, fire safety upgrades are being implemented, with a new fire sprinkler system being installed throughout the first floor at a cost of $27,196, as permitted in January 2025. The building underwent important safety improvements in the mid-1990s, including seismic upgrades with anchor bolts and plywood reinforcement in 1995.

In terms of resident experience, there have been recurring parking-related issues in the vicinity of the building, with numerous 311 calls between August 2024 and January 2025 reporting abandoned vehicles, illegal parking, and sidewalk parking violations. These parking challenges appear to be an ongoing concern in the area, with multiple citations and complaints filed, though many cases were unable to be validated by responding officers. While these parking issues don't directly impact the building's structural integrity or safety systems, they may affect the convenience of residents accessing the property. The building's age and history suggest regular maintenance and upgrades have been undertaken, with particular attention to fire safety and providing additional living space through the ADU addition, reflecting current urban housing trends.

Risk rating

How 1655-1657 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
91stpercentile

Out of 382 buildings in this neighborhood, 34 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
