Rent & eviction protection

Is 3326 San Bruno 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 1961
2 or more units

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

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

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 1961
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

3326 San Bruno Avenue is a 12-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1961, currently managed by Bayview Property Managers. The building has undergone several significant improvements and faced various issues over recent years. Most notably, in 2020, a fire incident caused substantial damage to Unit 2, requiring subsequent repair work including sheetrock replacement costing $50,000, with further related plumbing and electrical upgrades completed in 2021. The property successfully completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 (Tier 3) costing $60,000, demonstrating seismic safety compliance. Recent maintenance activities include deck repairs (2024), garage door replacements (2022), and water heater installations (2024), though there was a notable complaint about lack of hot water in February 2024.

The building has experienced recurring maintenance and safety issues, including water intrusion problems (2023), concerns about a cracked retaining wall (2023), and multiple fire safety violations between 2020-2023 regarding systems such as sprinklers, extinguishers, and alarms, though most were promptly corrected. Historical violations from 2000 include issues with mold, water damage, and plumbing problems, all of which were eventually abated by 2005. The property has undergone various plumbing and electrical upgrades, including HVAC improvements in units 1 and 2 (2022), and multiple water heater installations. While the building has demonstrated ongoing maintenance efforts and completed significant safety upgrades, the frequency of repair work and recent complaints suggest persistent challenges with building systems and infrastructure.

Risk rating

How 3326 San Bruno 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
0thpercentile

Out of 214 buildings in this neighborhood, 214 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.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.
