Rent & eviction protection

Is 530-532 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.

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 1948
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 530-532 Cabrillo Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Richmond neighborhood. Built in 1948 and currently owned by Tsai Yulson, this flats and duplex-style building has undergone several significant improvements over the past few decades. Most notably, between 2013 and 2014, substantial exterior work was completed, including additional stucco work visible from the public right of way and the repair of garage dry rot at both units, with these renovations totaling approximately $13,500. Previous major improvements include a complete reroofing in 2011 ($10,000), and comprehensive kitchen remodels in both units in 2008-2009, which involved new cabinets, fixtures, appliances, and electrical updates, totaling approximately $19,350. The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural issues, including a staircase post repair for dry rot in 2004, with earlier records indicating another reroofing project as far back as 1997. The electrical system has been thoroughly updated, with a significant upgrade in 2008-2009 including new lighting, switchgear, and sub-panels for both units, while plumbing improvements during the same period added modern kitchen amenities including a dishwasher, disposal, and updated gas lines. The property's documented maintenance history demonstrates regular upkeep and modernization efforts over the years, with particular attention paid to addressing dry rot and improving living amenities across both units.

Risk rating

How 530-532 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
89thpercentile

Out of 1723 buildings in this neighborhood, 190 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
