Rent & eviction protection

Is 398 Day 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 1938

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 1938
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 two-unit residential building at 398 Day Street in Noe Valley, owned by the Resmini Family Living Trust, has a documented history dating back to its 1938 construction. The property experienced several significant structural and safety-related events over the years, including a notable incident in December 2012 when a car damaged the exterior wall of the detached garage, requiring subsequent repairs to the stucco, studs, and framing. In 2018, a sewer replacement was completed, and in 2008, water service work was performed, indicating attention to critical infrastructure maintenance. The building's exterior features have undergone various modifications, including a completed stair repair in 2013 and a more substantial project in 2005 to reconstruct an exterior stair and balcony, though this permit expired.

Recent activity from 2023-2024 has included multiple 311 calls, primarily related to external maintenance issues such as graffiti, pavement defects, and sewer problems, with the most recent being a sewage backup in February 2024. There have also been several parking-related incidents near the property, including abandoned vehicles and driveway blocking cases. The building has experienced some violations and complaints, including a 2011 issue regarding unauthorized construction of a planter and wall that reportedly affected neighbors' windows, and a 2013 complaint about lead-based paint disturbance, though these matters were subsequently resolved. Infrastructure improvements have been documented, including a 1989 basement unit addition, and a 2024 smoke detector activation with no fire-related injuries was recorded. The property has active unresolved issues from 2024 related to a building window or structure being hit, a pavement defect, a faded street sign, and sidewalk garbage concerns, suggesting ongoing maintenance requirements.

Risk rating

How 398 Day 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
64thpercentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 676 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
