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 1993
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
May be covered by AB 1482. The building is old enough for the statewide rent cap (5% + regional CPI, capped at 10% per year) and just-cause protection after 12 months of tenancy.

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

111 Jones Street is a 108-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1993 in the Tenderloin neighborhood, currently owned by 111 Jones Associates. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues in recent years, with particularly notable problems in 2022-2023. There were multiple violations related to sleep area requirements in late 2023, and significant problems with the elevator and hot water systems throughout 2022-2023. The elevator was reportedly out of service for extended periods, affecting residents' mobility, and there were multiple complaints about hot water availability. The building's fire safety systems have required consistent attention, with multiple fire code violations recorded between 2022 and 2024, including sleeping area requirements, alarm system maintenance, and other safety concerns. Historical records show a pattern of infrastructure maintenance issues, including plumbing problems in 2019 involving mold/mildew and drainage issues, and several elevator service interruptions between 2007 and 2022.

The building has undergone various maintenance and upgrade works over the years, including a significant fire alarm system replacement in 2007 costing $140,000, the installation of new hot water storage tanks in 2022, and the addition of domestic hot water boilers in 2008. Multiple permits issued in recent years for street space usage and repairs suggest ongoing infrastructure maintenance. While federal housing records show an approved plan for a larger development with 100 affordable housing units, this appears to be in a closed status and not directly related to the current building operations. Recent 311 calls from January 2025 primarily relate to street cleaning and sidewalk maintenance issues in the vicinity of the building, rather than direct building maintenance concerns.

Risk rating

How 111 Jones 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 172 buildings in this neighborhood, 146 are predicted to be safer.

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 size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 4.2%
Moderate concern 72.6%
Severe concern 23.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
