Rent & eviction protection

Is 1312 Jackson 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.

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.

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

1312 Jackson Street is a 21-unit, 4-story multi-family residential building located in Nob Hill, constructed in 1909 and currently owned by 1070 Associates LLC. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past decade, most notably a complete soft-story retrofit completed in 2015 that included structural upgrades with bolting and shear walls, for which the building was classified as Tier 2 work with CFC issued. The property has experienced multiple maintenance and safety issues over the years, including recurring heating system problems evidenced by several "no heat" complaints between 2000-2007, multiple roof leak complaints in the mid-2000s, and various plumbing issues including a broken pipe affecting adjacent properties in 2013.

Recent maintenance history shows attention to critical systems, including storage locker construction, bathroom and kitchen updates, and major infrastructure work such as hydronic heating boiler replacement in 2012 and plumbing improvements. The building has an active history of fire safety monitoring, with multiple fire alarm system inspections and some violations related to alarm and sprinkler maintenance between 2006-2024, though most recent fire safety issues appear to have been promptly addressed. Regular maintenance appears to be ongoing, with recent complaints primarily relating to exterior and common area conditions rather than interior unit issues, though a concerning pattern of heating system-related complaints and maintenance history suggests this remains an area to monitor. The property has also undergone various infrastructure improvements including sewer system upgrades and electrical work, demonstrating ongoing investment in building systems maintenance and compliance with city requirements.

Risk rating

How 1312 Jackson 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

Grade A–B — Low risk

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.
