Rent & eviction protection

Is 40 Capra Way 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 1927
2 or more units
12 units
Property type
Multi-Family Residential
Zoning

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.

15+ years since occupancy
Built 1927
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 12-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 40 Capra Way in the Marina, managed by the Trust B-crisafi Fmly Lvg Tr, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1927. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory seismic retrofit in 2017 (classified as Tier 3 Soft Story) involving substantial structural reinforcement, including the installation of steel strong walls and moment frames, for which a Certificate of Final Completion was issued. Recent improvements include a complete fire alarm system upgrade in 2022 to meet current code requirements, and maintenance work such as re-roofing in 2021 and boiler replacements in 2022 and 2024. Apartment #7 received a kitchen renovation in late 2022, documented under building, plumbing, and electrical permits.

The building has a history of addressing building maintenance issues, including notable concerns from 2002-2017 when multiple violations were documented regarding interior surfaces, security, stairs, and fire safety. These violations, including issues with damaged walls, lead paint hazards, and a non-functioning fire escape ladder, were all abated by April 2017. A fire alarm-related complaint in 2023 was also promptly corrected. Recent maintenance patterns show regular attention to infrastructure, though there have been several recent complaints regarding blocked driveways and sidewalk cleaning needs, which were addressed through city services. The most recent building systems improvements, including the recent water heater replacement in 2024, suggest ongoing maintenance attention to critical building systems.

Risk rating

How 40 Capra Way'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
22ndpercentile

Out of 988 buildings in this neighborhood, 771 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
