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 2000
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 48 Lucy Street in the Bayview neighborhood is a 2-story, 2-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 2000, currently owned by the Diacakis Family Living Trust. The building's construction history shows several permit applications in the late 1990s and 2000, with the primary permit (9724148) for a 3-family dwelling being issued in December 1997 for $250,000, followed by two minor revisions in 1998-1999. A significant exterior renovation was completed in 2019, costing $15,000, which involved improvements to the T1-11 siding, installation of vapor barrier, and application of new cement board on both sides of the house.

The most notable recent activity relates to numerous parking enforcement incidents in January 2025, with eight out of ten reported cases resulting in citations for illegal parking, particularly violation of sidewalk rules, though some cases resulted in officers being unable to locate the offending vehicles. These parking issues seem to cluster around the beginning of 2025, with continuous reports over several days, though they do not directly impact the building's structural or living conditions. Additionally, there is a record of T-Mobile equipment installation on an existing utility pole in the vicinity, approved in the planning records. While the building's maintenance history shows proper upkeep, particularly with the 2019 renovation of exterior elements, the recent parking enforcement issues appear to be the most pressing concern, though they relate to street conditions rather than the building itself.

Risk rating

How 48 Lucy 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
98thpercentile

Out of 382 buildings in this neighborhood, 8 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
