The Building Commissioner and/or his or her authorized representative shall make, or cause to be made, biannual inspections of the exteriors of all dwelling units, dwelling structures, and residential rental premises and secondary or appurtenant structures thereon, which are leased or rented or intended to be leased or rented, to determine whether or not such structures or premises conform with the Building and Housing Code, including Chapter 1492. Inspections of the interiors and the exteriors of said structures shall occur upon any change in ownership of the dwelling unit (such inspection will be satisfied by an inspection conducted pursuant to Section 1444.05), and upon any change in tenants of the dwelling unit. Such inspections may also be made whenever the Building Commissioner has reasonable cause to believe that a violation of the Building and Housing Code exists therein or thereon.
