Rent & eviction protection

Is 3757 Webster 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 1934
2 or more units

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

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

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

The 18-unit apartment building at 3757 Webster Street in the Marina district has undergone several significant safety system upgrades in recent years. Most notably, in 2024, the building completed a fire alarm system upgrade to comply with San Francisco Fire Code requirements, including the installation of low frequency sounders, with an associated electrical permit indicating compliance with building codes. The building's boiler system was replaced in 2023, demonstrating ongoing maintenance of critical infrastructure. Historical records show the building has a pattern of addressing fire safety concerns, with multiple fire alarm system upgrades since 2019 and two fire violations related to sleeping area requirements - one documented in December 2023 (which was later abated) and a 2000 violation regarding combustible storage that was resolved.

The property has experienced some building maintenance challenges, particularly documented in late 2021 to early 2022, when multiple violations were recorded regarding heating system requirements, caretaker provisions, and appliance functionality - all of which were subsequently abated. Historical permits from the 1990s show various interior modifications, including doorway modifications and wall construction. The building's roof was last replaced in 2009, and there is a recent (2024) permit for specifically addressing the fire alarm system. Recent 311 calls (2022-2024) around the property have primarily concerned exterior issues such as sidewalk defects, illegal postings, and garbage management, though these are generally street-related matters rather than building-specific problems.

Risk rating

How 3757 Webster 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
0thpercentile

Out of 988 buildings in this neighborhood, 988 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
