Rent & eviction protection

Is 1121-1125 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.

Built 1922
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 two-story mixed-use building at 1121-1125 Clement Street in the Inner Richmond, owned by 12th Ave SF LLC, was constructed in 1922 and contains three multi-family residential units plus commercial space. The property has undergone significant renovations and faced several challenges over the past two decades, with the most notable incident being fire and water damage from an adjacent building in 2013 that affected multiple units and the ground-floor restaurant. This was followed by several renovation projects in 2015, including comprehensive updates to plumbing, electrical systems, and the removal of an unpermitted rear addition and shower from the commercial space. The building's systems were extensively modernized in early 2015, including new plumbing lines throughout, electrical upgrades with new panels, and the installation of multiple new appliances and safety features.

In recent years, the property has faced challenges with maintaining active commercial occupancy, with multiple complaints about vacant storefronts between 2018 and 2023, including a 2023 complaint about non-transparent windows. Historical issues include unpermitted construction complaints from 2014 regarding a shower installation in the commercial space and concerns about noisy restaurant ventilation in 2011. The building has required several sidewalk and street space permits between 2015-2016, and there have been various maintenance and cleanup issues documented through 311 calls in the area, particularly during 2023-2024, including reports of garbage, debris, and cleaning needs outside the building. While many past violations have been resolved, the recent history of vacant commercial space and maintenance issues suggests ongoing challenges with building occupancy and maintenance management.

Risk rating

How 1121-1125 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

Grade A–B — Low risk

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.
