Rent & eviction protection

Is 1900 Turk 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 1927
2 or more units

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 12-unit, 3-story apartment building at 1900 Turk Street, owned by the Basuino Family Living Trust, was built in 1927 and has undergone several significant safety and maintenance projects over the years. Most notably, the building completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit program as a Tier 3 building, including work on grade beams, shearwalls, and moment frames, with the Certificate of Final Completion issued in 2022. In 2022, the building experienced a vehicle impact that damaged its facade, requiring repairs costing $15,000. Previous structural and safety concerns were addressed through various permits, including a $50,000 soft-story retrofit permit in 2017, though revisions and withdrawals followed until completion in 2022. The building has also had its share of maintenance issues, including a serious incident in 2013 involving ceiling failure, water damage, and mold/mildew problems, which were eventually abated.

The building's fire safety systems have required regular attention, with multiple inspections revealing issues with fire alarms, extinguishers, and exit access between 2015 and 2019, though all violations were subsequently abated. Fire department responses to the building primarily involved false alarms or system malfunctions, with no recorded civilian injuries. Recent history shows ongoing neighborhood challenges with garbage, debris, and safety concerns in the surrounding area, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in 2024, though these external issues do not directly reflect on the building's internal conditions. The building has undergone various interior improvements over the years, including kitchen renovations in Unit 104 in 2016-2017, and has maintained compliance with major building codes, including the completion of the Soft Story Retrofit Program.

Risk rating

How 1900 Turk 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
9thpercentile

Out of 136 buildings in this neighborhood, 124 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Number of units

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