Rent & eviction protection

Is 1320-1324 South Van Ness 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.

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 1900
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 three-unit, three-story residential building at 1320-1324 South Van Ness Avenue, owned by 2030 Sv Ness LLC, was constructed in 1900 and has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years. Most notably, the building experienced multiple violations in 2004 related to stair repairs and security requirements, with all issues properly addressed and abated by October 19, 2004. The property has required various infrastructure updates, including a rear stair repair in 2004 (costing $2,000), a sewer repair/house trap installation in 2014, and a gas houseline extension project in 2011 affecting both 1320 and 1324 units.

Recent history shows ongoing maintenance of public areas around the building, with multiple 311 calls in 2023 regarding general street cleaning and some parking enforcement issues. The building's immediate vicinity has experienced various urban maintenance challenges, including reports of graffiti (April 2023), hazardous materials (August 2021), and waste issues (2020-2023), though these external matters are primarily related to public space rather than building conditions. The property's maintenance record suggests regular attention to both compliance issues and necessary infrastructure improvements, with no active violations or complaints currently on file as of October 2023.

Risk rating

How 1320-1324 South Van Ness 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

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.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 39.5%
Moderate concern 18.5%
