Rent & eviction protection

Is 1107-1109 Mason 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 1900

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

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 1900
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 1107-1109 Mason Street in Nob Hill, owned by the Evelyn Barrett Vincenzi Rev Trust, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and safety-related improvements over recent years, most notably a comprehensive roof and deck repair project in 2018-2019. This work was initiated in response to a violation filed in August 2018 regarding an unsafe rooftop deck, which was subsequently abated in April 2019 following the completion of re-roofing work costing $7,800 and structural revisions to the deck framing. The building's earlier history includes foundation replacement work in 1990 and interior remodeling in 1989.

More recently, there has been a pattern of parking enforcement issues near the property, with multiple complaints about driveway blocking reported between September and December 2024. Additionally, there were two reports of garbage and debris on the street during that same period, including one incident involving glass that required attention. Historical complaints regarding construction activities in 2017 and 2018 raised concerns about safety and permit compliance, though these issues were addressed and resolved. The property's maintenance history suggests attention to structural integrity and safety concerns, particularly regarding the roof and deck areas, though no current building violations are on record.

Risk rating

How 1107-1109 Mason 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
90thpercentile

Out of 1125 buildings in this neighborhood, 112 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.
