Rent & eviction protection

Is 61-69 Prospect 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.

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 two-story, five-unit multi-family residential building at 61-69 Prospect Avenue in Bernal Heights, constructed in 1880 and currently owned by Danielle C. Flannery, has undergone several significant improvements in recent years. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017-2018, classified as Tier 3, which included structural revisions and the installation of new concrete footings and shear walls, with a total investment of $60,000. Additional recent improvements include a reroofing project in 2014 valued at $14,700, electrical upgrades in 2018 including Ufer ground installation, and various electrical improvements between 2006-2008 for lighting fixtures and general remodeling.

The building has maintained compliance with housing regulations, with routine housing inspections in 1999 and 2007 showing no active issues. Recent 311 calls associated with the property (2023-2024) have primarily concerned external matters such as parking violations and waste management, rather than building-specific concerns. While there have been multiple reports of parking violations and issues with waste receptacle management on the street adjacent to the property, these are external neighborhood issues rather than direct building management concerns. The property's documented history shows regular maintenance and compliance with safety requirements, with no recorded tenant buyouts at this address and all major building systems receiving appropriate attention through permitted work.

Risk rating

How 61-69 Prospect 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
