Rent & eviction protection

Is 2439-2441 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 1927
2 or more units

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

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.

15+ years since occupancy
Built 1927
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 2439-2441 Cabrillo Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood, constructed in 1927 and currently owned by Mayya & Albert J Arroyo. The building has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, including the installation of a 10 kW solar PV system with 25 panels in 2022, comprehensive window replacements in 2020, and a bathroom remodel in 2018 that included both plumbing and electrical work. Of particular concern are multiple reports between 2012 and 2022 regarding an allegedly illegal unit (Unit A) with heating issues, though these complaints have since been marked as not active. The building has a history of maintenance work including balcony repairs and various bathroom renovations, with the most notable historical repair being earthquake damage remediation in 1990. Recent environmental health concerns were documented in early 2022 regarding mold and mildew, and there have been several routine property management issues documented through 311 calls, including garbage and debris concerns, a damaged tree report, and a parking enforcement request. The building's permit history suggests regular maintenance and upgrading of building systems, with particular attention paid to sustainability through the recent solar installation and energy-efficient window replacements.

Risk rating

How 2439-2441 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
35thpercentile
