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 2007
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 326-328 Alemany Blvd property in Bernal Heights, owned by 320 Alemany LLC, is a three-story, four-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 2007. The building has experienced significant regulatory challenges, most notably in 2022 when it was found to contain seven units instead of the permitted four, with reports of unauthorized unit conversions including the addition of kitchens and unauthorized front door installations. These violations prompted multiple notices of violation (NOV), leading to ongoing compliance efforts including a voluntary fire escape retrofit completed in October 2023 (cost: $4,500) and a new exterior fire escape installation filed in September 2024.

The building's safety and code compliance history shows persistent issues, including multiple fire code violations documented in November 2022 that required permits to address. Earlier records from 2005-2009 reveal various construction-related violations, including unauthorized work and missing fire safety equipment. The property has undergone several infrastructure improvements over time, including electrical system upgrades in 2005-2007, a backflow device installation in 2022, and sewer line replacement in 2009. Recent property management issues have been documented through multiple 311 calls in 2024, primarily related to parking violations, encampment reports, and a sewage backup in November 2023. The building is currently under review for a proposal to legalize unpermitted units and address open space deficiencies, with an associated Planning Code Section 207(c)(4) application pending.

Risk rating

How 326-328 Alemany Blvd'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

Grade A–B — Low risk

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 1276 buildings in this neighborhood, 1136 are predicted to be safer.
