30 Brazil Ave

Excelsior, SF 94112 6083001 4 units · 2 fl · 1951

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 30 Brazil 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 1951
2 or more units

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 1951
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 4-unit multi-family residential building at 30 Brazil Ave in the Excelsior neighborhood, owned by Nicolas & Adela Saucedo Tru, was constructed in 1951 and consists of two stories. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, including a complete electrical system upgrade in 2008 with the installation of a 200-amp main service with five meters, and more recent maintenance activities such as street space permits issued in 2013 and 2010. Historical records show the building has had multiple routine inspections by Housing Inspection Services between 1996 and 2011, with the most recent inspection in 2011 identifying issues with stair repairs, which were subsequently resolved. The building has faced several safety-related violations, particularly in November 2000, when multiple citations were issued regarding various safety concerns including stair repairs, fire extinguisher maintenance, smoke detector installation, security requirements, and general building safety matters – all of which were abated by December 22, 2000. Previous maintenance work included reroofing completed in 1999, and repairs to the rear archway and utility-room doorway in 1986.

More recently, the property has experienced some recurring issues with debris and garbage accumulation in the vicinity, particularly during late 2024, with multiple reports of abandoned garbage and debris on or near the property. These environmental maintenance issues were documented through several 311 calls between November 2024 and January 2025, although most were resolved promptly. The building's infrastructure has been maintained over the years, with electrical improvements in 2008 and various repair work completed as needed. While the property has had its share of violations and required repairs, particularly in the earlier 2000s, these issues appear to have been addressed according to available records, with no active violations currently noted. The building's history shows regular oversight through routine inspections, and while there are ongoing issues with street cleanliness in the immediate area, these appear to be related to public space maintenance rather than building-specific concerns.

Risk rating

How 30 Brazil 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
37thpercentile

Out of 337 buildings in this neighborhood, 212 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Number of units
