Rent & eviction protection

Is 4151 24Th St 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 1895

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 1895
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 property at 4151 24th Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building with commercial space, located in Noe Valley and built in 1895. The building has undergone several significant modifications over the past decades, with the most notable being a substantial 2006 renovation that included a 134 square foot extension to the first-floor office space and a major interior reconfiguration of both floors, costing $210,000. This renovation was followed by the installation of 50 lights, electrical work, and non-electrical signage. Foundation stability has been a recurring concern, with a complaint filed in 2010 regarding the west side foundation being undermined, which was eventually resolved in 2011. A 2010 permit was issued for underpinning work along the east side property line. The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural issues, including front stairs dry rot repair in 1998 and a vertical/horizontal addition completed in 1990.

Recent records from 2024 indicate ongoing infrastructure challenges, particularly with the sidewalk, which has experienced defects including collapse and lifting that were reported in May and August 2024. The property has generated multiple complaints about street cleaning and debris issues between 2019 and 2024, including reports of garbage, furniture, and graffiti. In 2018, there was a gas line extension project tied to the property that subsequently expired. Planning records show a notable change regarding parking space requirements, with a permit issued to remove required parking space, though the impact of this change is unclear given the property's two-unit designation. The building's recent maintenance and complaint history suggests ongoing attention to infrastructure issues, particularly regarding the sidewalk and street cleaning.

Risk rating

How 4151 24Th St'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
88thpercentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 225 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
