Rent & eviction protection

Is 4412-4414 Cabrillo 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 1941

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 1941
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 4412-4414 Cabrillo Street in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood is a one-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1941, containing two units with a ground floor flat and store configuration. The building has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance work over the past few decades, with the most substantial recent improvements occurring in 2018, including a $62,000 kitchen and bathroom remodel that involved cabinet replacement, plumbing upgrades, and electrical work. This renovation was accompanied by necessary updates to the building's infrastructure, including the replacement of sewer pipes and house trap work in January 2019. Earlier records show a reroofing project completed in 1989.

The building has a concerning history of unpermitted modifications and tenant complaints, particularly during the 2009-2010 period when multiple complaints were filed about unauthorized construction, including a horizontal extension and an unauthorized room with questionable ventilation, reportedly emitting smoke. These issues appear to have been addressed, as indicated by their "Not Active" status. In 2017, there was another complaint regarding construction work related to a former laundry mat without proper permits. More recently, the property has experienced various maintenance and service issues in the surrounding area, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls throughout 2024, primarily related to garbage and debris on the street, though these are not directly related to the building's condition or safety. A fire incident was recorded as a "Good Intent Call" with no civilian injuries reported, and all building permits on record have been appropriately closed.

Risk rating

How 4412-4414 Cabrillo 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
28thpercentile

Out of 1040 buildings in this neighborhood, 749 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
