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 1905
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 two-story multi-family residential building at 363 Prospect Avenue in Bernal Heights, owned by the Strausberg Betsy Trust, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1905. Most recently, in April 2022, a solar photovoltaic system was installed, featuring 6 roof-mounted modules with a total rating of 2.304 kW. The property has seen substantial modernization over the years, including a major kitchen remodel in 2015 ($75,000), which encompassed new cabinets, counters, lighting, flooring, and appliances, along with associated plumbing and electrical work. Other notable improvements include window and door replacements in 2005 ($18,000), reroofing in 2003 ($16,200), and a gas houseline extension in 2010.

The building's infrastructure has received attention through various permits, including an electrical service upgrade to 100 amp with new sub-panel and grounding in 2008, though this permit expired. The property experienced a flooding incident related to street sewer issues in July 2021, which was transferred to the appropriate department for handling. The location has seen recurring parking enforcement issues, particularly relating to driveway blockages and abandoned vehicles, with multiple citations issued between 2019-2024. However, these parking incidents, while frequent, do not directly reflect on the building's condition or management. The building's maintenance record shows consistent investment in upgrades and improvements over time, with no recorded violations or safety concerns in the available data.

Risk rating

How 363 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
75thpercentile

Out of 1276 buildings in this neighborhood, 319 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
