Rent & eviction protection

Is 5280-5282 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 1924

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.

Built 1924
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 5280-5282 Mission Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building with a ground floor commercial space, constructed in 1924 and currently owned by the Tran/Diep Family Trust. The building has undergone several significant modifications in the 1990s, including the installation of a fire suppression system and kitchen renovations, with a notable $40,000 project to build a kitchen and remodel a bathroom for handicap accessibility in 1995. A concerning incident was reported in December 2017, when there were allegations of unauthorized occupancy in the upstairs unit and illegal dumping of furniture in the rear, though this complaint is currently listed as not active.

In recent years, the property has experienced multiple parking-related issues, particularly in early 2025, with seven out of nine parking complaints being unable to locate the vehicle or resulting in citations being issued. There were also two incidents requiring attention to garbage issues: a loose garbage report in November 2022 that was resolved, and an open request from June 2024 regarding a garbage can repair. While these maintenance and parking issues do not directly indicate safety concerns, they may affect resident quality of life. The building's permit history shows no active permits or recent major renovations since the 1990s, with all documented permit activity being from the 1990s period.

Risk rating

How 5280-5282 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
46thpercentile

Out of 112 buildings in this neighborhood, 60 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.

Property class: apartment building

Apartment building — this property classification influences expected violation rates.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.
