Rent & eviction protection

Is 4119-4123 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 before 1979
Built 1910
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 1910
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 4119-4123 24th Street in Noe Valley is a three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Chiwi LLC. The building's recent history indicates ongoing maintenance and improvements, with work approved in July 2024 for kitchen and bathroom remodels, including plumbing and electrical updates, totaling $64,000. Earlier this year, the property underwent exterior work to address paint-related violations. The building has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the past decade, including multiple violations related to water damage, plumbing problems, and exterior maintenance. Notable past issues include a 2017 complaint regarding hazardous conditions from dry rot and lead paint concerns, a 2016 complaint about unauthorized construction, and a 2011 complaint documenting various maintenance problems including mold, water damage, and plumbing issues. The property has also undergone several restaurant-related improvements, including the installation of a handicap counter and fire suppression system upgrades in 2010.

Recent complaints and violations suggest ongoing attention to both residential and commercial aspects of the property. In 2023-2024, there have been multiple noise complaints regarding mechanical equipment, and in 2024, there were issues with paint maintenance that required attention due to potential lead hazard concerns. The building's maintenance history shows regular updates and repairs being conducted, with the owner actively addressing violations as they arise. Historical issues from the early 2000s included concerns about unauthorized structures in the rear yard and various maintenance violations. The property has complied with most building and fire safety requirements over the years, though there were instances of work being performed without proper permits, such as the 2005 fire violation for operating without a permit. The current status of the property shows active maintenance and compliance efforts, particularly in response to more recent violations and resident concerns.

Risk rating

How 4119-4123 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
19thpercentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 1522 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
