Rent & eviction protection

Is 1358 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.

Built before 1979
Built 1905

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.

Built 1905
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 three-unit residential building at 1358 Clement Street in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Chuang Huo Chuan, has undergone significant changes and faced several challenges since its construction in 1905. The property experienced substantial renovations in late 2014, including the conversion of first-floor spaces to create additional bedrooms and living areas, bathroom remodeling, and electrical system upgrades to 200-amp service with three meters and panels. However, this period also saw unauthorized work that triggered a building complaint. In January 2016, the building faced multiple violations related to heating system deficiencies, including lack of heat to habitable rooms and boiler room concerns, though these issues were subsequently abated by April 2016. The building's maintenance history reveals earlier challenges with pests, including termite treatment in 1999 and dry rot repairs in 2000, along with a roof replacement in 1992.

More recent building improvements include the installation of a new furnace system in March 2016. The property has been subject to regular inspections, with a notable 2009 routine housing inspection identifying fire safety concerns regarding extinguishers and fire escape ladders. The most recent building-related activity recorded was a ground floor window replacement project, though it was noted that vinyl windows were installed without proper permits. While the building has experienced various maintenance and compliance issues over the years, most recent records indicate that the majority of past violations and complaints have been resolved. Recent 311 calls in 2023-2024 primarily relate to street cleaning and parking issues near the property, rather than building-specific concerns.

Risk rating

How 1358 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
23rdpercentile

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 1732 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.
