Bernal Heights, SF 94110 5721030 2 units · 2 fl · 1900

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 333 Richland 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 1900

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.

Built 1900
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 333 Richland Avenue in Bernal Heights, owned by Suzanne V S Walker Lvg Tr, is a 2-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900. The property has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance work over the past two decades, with the most recent major work being a $11,500 reroofing project completed in 2015. Notable improvements include a comprehensive garage electrical upgrade in 2008 (installation of lights, switches, receptacles, and panel board), complete rewiring of the upstairs apartment in 2006 to remove old knob tube wiring, and substantial exterior work in 2008 involving the replacement of a 4' x 9' section of stucco siding with clapboard. Historical records also show multiple siding and rot damage repairs between 1999 and 2002, indicating ongoing maintenance attention to structural issues.

Recent activity in the vicinity of the property primarily consists of routine municipal service calls, including street cleaning and parking enforcement matters. There have been several instances of loose garbage on the street (2020-2024) and multiple parking-related complaints, including two abandoned vehicle reports in 2021 and several driveway blocking incidents. While the property has experienced various maintenance and repair work over the years, particularly concerning electrical systems and exterior surfaces, there are no recent records of significant building code violations, safety concerns, or major system failures. The maintenance history suggests regular upkeep of the property, with particular attention to electrical systems, siding, and structural elements.

Risk rating

How 333 Richland 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
48thpercentile

Out of 1276 buildings in this neighborhood, 664 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.
