Rent & eviction protection

Is 1941-1943 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 before 1979
Built 1930

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 1930
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 1941-1943 Cabrillo Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood. Built in 1930 and owned by Bella & Yefin Rubin, this flats and duplex-style building has undergone significant improvements and modifications over the years, with the most recent work completed in September 2023 involving a $17,000 reroofing project. Between 2010-2012, the building underwent substantial renovations including bathroom and kitchen remodeling on all floors, electrical system upgrades, and the conversion of the first floor basement into a family room with full bath facilities. Notable modifications during this period included the enlargement of the garage door and various bathroom expansions, particularly through the lightwell areas of units 1941 and 1943, as well as the addition of a deck extension on the third floor.

The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, with a completed reroofing project in 2023 standing out as the most recent major work. A building complaint was filed in December 2021 regarding concerns of a possible unpermitted third unit with kitchen and bathroom facilities, though this complaint is currently not active. Recent 311 calls from 2024-2025 have primarily related to street cleaning issues, including reports of garbage and debris, with one incident involving human waste or urine noted in July 2024. Three parking-related complaints were filed in January 2024, indicating ongoing challenges with driveway access in the vicinity, though two of these cases were either resolved or deemed invalid.

Risk rating

How 1941-1943 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
82ndpercentile

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 405 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
