Rent & eviction protection

Is 18 Heyman 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.

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

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 property at 18 Heyman Ave is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building built in 1914 in Bernal Heights, currently owned by Antonio A & Maria P Quevedo. The building has undergone several significant renovations and repairs over the years, with the most recent work in 2021 including siding repairs and installation of a backyard area drain. The building experienced several serious safety issues in 2018, when multiple building violations were recorded and subsequently addressed, including the installation of required smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, stair repairs, and weatherproofing of entry doors. These violations were officially abated by October 2018. Other notable improvements include a substantial kitchen renovation in the lower unit in 2015 ($22,000) that included new cabinets, granite countertops, and flooring, along with electrical and plumbing updates.

The property has a documented history of maintenance concerns, particularly regarding structural elements such as walkways and stairs. In 2008, there were multiple complaints about faulty walkway boards and back stairs, which were addressed through repairs. Earlier renovation work was completed in 2005, including bathroom fixtures and interior improvements. While there have been some complaints about unpermitted work, particularly in 2018 and 2021, these issues appear to have been resolved. The building's recent history shows no active building violations or complaints, suggesting improved compliance with maintenance and safety standards. External to the building, there have been several 311 calls in recent years primarily related to tree maintenance and parking issues, though these are not directly related to the building's condition or habitability.

Risk rating

How 18 Heyman 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
