Rent & eviction protection

Is 214-216 Onondaga 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.

Built 1926

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 1926
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 4-unit multi-family residential building at 214-216 Onondaga Ave in Mission Terrace, owned by the Reynoso Family 2016 Living Trust, has undergone several significant renovations and experienced various maintenance issues since its construction in 1926. Most recently, in late 2024, there were multiple complaints regarding unauthorized work in Unit 1 and Unit 3 involving kitchen and bathroom remodeling, electrical work, and the creation of an in-law unit, which is currently listed as an active complaint. However, the property has also seen legitimate improvements during the same period, including a $30,000 kitchen and restroom renovation in Unit 3, electrical rewiring work, and plumbing updates to address the complaints, all of which are marked as complete.

The building's history shows attention to major systems maintenance, including reroofing projects completed in 1996 and 2014, window installations in 2005, and significant repairs to address dry rot and plumbing issues in the lightwell in 2004. Between 2001 and 2004, there were several housing code violations that were promptly addressed, including security upgrades (installation of deadlatch locks and self-closing devices), fire safety improvements (smoke detectors and fire extinguisher requirements), and various other code compliance issues, all of which were abated by May 2001. The property has also experienced recurring issues with hot water availability in 2001-2002, and there have been multiple instances of graffiti and garbage concerns reported through 311 calls in 2024, suggesting ongoing challenges with exterior maintenance and neighborhood conditions.

Risk rating

How 214-216 Onondaga 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

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
40thpercentile

Out of 149 buildings in this neighborhood, 89 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.
