Rent & eviction protection

Is 3927-3929 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.

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 1911
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 3927-3929 24th Street is a three-story, mixed-use building constructed in 1911, containing 3 residential units and ground-floor commercial space totaling 1,384 square feet. The building underwent significant seismic retrofitting work in 2016, including both residential and commercial portions, with the commercial space receiving additional disabled access improvements costing approximately $15,000. Recent improvements include a 2018 bathroom remodel, plumbing updates, and electrical work, as well as a 2019 ADA compliance project to replace a non-compliant man door with a patio door providing rear yard access from the retail space.

The property has experienced several permit-related concerns, most notably in 2019 when there were complaints about unauthorized construction work involving concrete pouring in the rear area, and an unauthorized change of use of the commercial space that led to a building complaint in January 2021. There were also multiple general cleaning issues reported through 311 calls between 2019 and 2023, primarily involving loose garbage on the street. Historical records indicate past maintenance issues from 1996, including water damage and window problems, though these appear to have been resolved. The property has also been the subject of various planning inquiries, including a withdrawn conditional use authorization for an outdoor activity area related to a proposed dog daycare/café operation. Recent 311 calls indicate ongoing maintenance of street conditions, with the most recent being general cleaning in 2023 and a damaged tree report in 2022.

Risk rating

How 3927-3929 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

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.
