Rent & eviction protection

Is 4754 Mission 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 1927
2 or more units

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

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.

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 4754 Mission Street, a two-unit multi-family residential building with commercial space, has a mixed history since its 1927 construction. The building has undergone various improvements over the years, with recent activity focused on the commercial portion. In 2017-2018, a coffee shop underwent significant renovations including counter replacement, new lighting, and updates to plumbing and electrical systems (completed at a cost of $2,000), though there have been ongoing fire safety concerns with multiple alarm system violations recorded between 2007 and 2024, including a hoarding-related violation in December 2024 and a sleeping area requirement violation issued in November 2023.

The building has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over its history, particularly evident in 2005-2006 when multiple violations were recorded including damaged walls, ceilings, and water heater problems, along with water quality issues and gas leak concerns. More recent history shows regular maintenance and compliance efforts, though there have been recurring issues with garbage and debris management as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in 2024. The property went through a period of commercial vacancy in 2018, and there have been periodic complaints about the condition of the commercial storefront. The building's history includes multiple fire safety inspections and violations, primarily related to the alarm system and other safety equipment, though most historical violations have been resolved or abated. Recent planning records indicate efforts to improve the surrounding area, including proposals for street improvements such as a bike corral.

Risk rating

How 4754 Mission 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
38thpercentile

Out of 149 buildings in this neighborhood, 92 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
