Rent & eviction protection

Is 1918-1922 Clement 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.

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 property at 1918-1922 Clement Street is a two-story, multi-family residential building with four units and ground-floor commercial space, constructed in 1908 and currently owned by Toy Real Estate Investment. The building's history includes several significant modifications, with the most recent being an interior remodel filed in August 2023 to convert the first floor into a limited restaurant, valued at $198,000. This recent renovation has generated at least one active building complaint in July 2023 regarding construction work and noise without proper permit postings. The property has undergone multiple transformations, including a 2018 attempt to convert the first floor into child care facilities with accessibility improvements, and a notable incident in 2022 involving unauthorized short-term rental activity that led to a violation notice when the entire building was converted into an 8-room Airbnb operation.

The building has seen various structural and systems improvements over the years, including significant renovations in 2005-2006 that added bathrooms, revised stairways for code compliance, and converted ground-floor space into commercial use with new electrical systems. More recent infrastructure work includes plumbing updates with water heater replacement and gas line extensions in 2008. The property has experienced some maintenance challenges in the surrounding area, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding sidewalk defects, waste issues, and tree maintenance needs. While many historical permits show completed work, there have been a few expired permits, including a 2004 permit for replacement work and a 2002 permit for siding repairs, indicating some historical project management oversight issues.

Risk rating

How 1918-1922 Clement 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
17thpercentile

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 1868 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
