Cow Hollow, SF 94123 0506021 3 units · 3 fl · 1900

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 3136-3140 Laguna 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
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.

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 3-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 3136-3140 Laguna Street in Cow Hollow, owned by Anthony S Dintcho, has undergone several significant renovations and improvements since its construction in 1900. The most recent major work includes a kitchen remodel in 2017 at 3140 Laguna Street, which involved installing a new forced air heating system, a new kitchen sink, electrical work with a 70A subpanel, and general wiring improvements, costing approximately $35,000 in total. The building has a history of proactive maintenance and improvements, including foundation work in 2011 (though the permit expired), a significant kitchen and bathroom remodel in 2011 at unit 3136, and the installation of various safety features such as smoke detectors in 2012.

The property has maintained generally good compliance with safety regulations, with only one recent fire safety issue in 2022 regarding alarm systems, which was promptly corrected. Historical records show some notable building code compliance issues in 2002 related to fire safety and security requirements, including combustible storage and entry door viewer installation, but these were resolved within a month. While there have been several 311 calls in the vicinity of the building in recent years (2023-2025), these primarily relate to street cleaning and parking issues rather than building-specific concerns. The building's maintenance record suggests regular attention to both unit upgrades and essential infrastructure improvements, with multiple completed permits for various systems and features throughout its history.

Risk rating

How 3136-3140 Laguna 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
39thpercentile

Out of 861 buildings in this neighborhood, 525 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.
