Rent & eviction protection

Is 301 Orizaba 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 before 1979
Built 1945
2 or more units
2 units
Property type
Multi-Family Residential
Zoning
RH2
Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

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 1945
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 301 Orizaba Avenue in Ingleside Heights, owned by Frank Sanchez, is a 1945 two-story flats and duplex structure. The property has experienced several notable incidents affecting resident safety and building integrity. In 2017, a significant building violation was recorded when multiple complaints were filed regarding the unauthorized conversion of the garage into storage rooms, which lacked proper permits and sprinkler systems, and contained hazardous flammable materials. This situation was resolved by October 2017 following the removal of unauthorized partitions and storage items, at a cost of $201, with the work being completed under two building permits. More recent building maintenance work includes a house trap replacement in December 2019 and a gas house line extension completed in September 2013.

The property has undergone some historical modifications, including the installation of an industrial fence in 2013, which resulted in two complaints about improper permitting. While there have been two fire alarm incidents recorded (both false alarms) with no civilian injuries, most recently in October 2022, the building's most pressing current issue appears to be related to exterior maintenance. In late 2024, there were numerous documented cases of abandoned debris, including furniture and mattresses, around the property, with ten separate 311 calls for garbage and debris removal between November 2024 and January 2025. These recent incidents, while primarily exterior maintenance issues, represent the building's most frequent interaction with municipal services in recent months.

Risk rating

How 301 Orizaba 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
73rdpercentile

Out of 45 buildings in this neighborhood, 12 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
