Rent & eviction protection

Is 1114-1118 Montgomery 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 1909
2 or more units

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 1909
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 Woon Family Trust owns this three-unit multi-family residential building located at 1114-1118 Montgomery Street in Telegraph Hill, which was constructed in 1909 and is classified as a Flats & Duplex property. The building has undergone several significant renovations and improvements over the years, most notably a comprehensive remodel in 2008-2009 that included interior remodeling across all floors, window replacements, staircase modifications, and structural enhancements such as additional posts at various floors. The building's systems have been upgraded to modern standards, including new heating systems and exhaust ventilation for all units, electrical system upgrades including new panels, and plumbing improvements including new gas lines.

In recent years, there have been some concerning issues, most notably an unresolved plumbing complaint from October 2022 regarding an unknown leak affecting neighboring properties that is still listed as active. More recent activities include a permitted project from March 2022 to create a new storage platform and bathroom in the basement, with associated electrical work, though this was followed by an electrical work permit in October 2024 for additional updates to the basement toilet room. Regular routine inspections have been conducted by Housing Inspection Services in 2001, 2005, and 2010, with no significant issues reported in the past. The building's location has experienced typical urban challenges as evidenced by multiple 311 calls regarding parking issues and street cleaning matters, as well as a minor building safety concern related to blocked exits reported in 2020. Additionally, there was a prior incident involving illegal short-term rentals that has been marked as closed/abated.

Risk rating

How 1114-1118 Montgomery 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
27thpercentile
