Parkside, SF 94116 2362022A 3 units · 3 fl · 1945

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 2386-2390 34Th 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

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 property at 2386-2390 34th Avenue is a two-story multi-family residential building with three units, constructed in 1945 and currently owned by 2386-2390 34th Avenue Llc. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past decade, with the most recent major works occurring in 2021, consisting of kitchen and bath remodeling valued at $30,000. A notable safety upgrade was completed in 2020 with the installation of a new sprinkler monitoring system, following earlier sprinkler work in 2018 that included the installation of 15 sprinklers on the ground floor. The building has received attention to structural integrity, including the replacement of a dry rot beam on the first floor in 2019 and the replacement of rear building stairs in 2017. A comprehensive legalization effort was undertaken in 2016 under the Per Unit Legalization Ordinance 43-14, which involved legalizing additional bedrooms and bathrooms on the first floor.

The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, including a reroofing in 2015, and the recent kitchen and bath remodeling in 2021 included both plumbing and electrical upgrades. There was one fire complaint in 2021 related to the sprinkler/standpipe system, which was resolved within one month with the condition corrected. The property has had minimal street-related issues, with only two 311 calls on record: one in 2024 regarding general cleaning and another in 2021 related to public works service, both of which were resolved. The building's permit history indicates consistent investment in safety systems, structural maintenance, and modernization of living spaces, with all major permits having reached completion status.

Risk rating

How 2386-2390 34Th 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
41stpercentile

Out of 255 buildings in this neighborhood, 150 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
