Rent & eviction protection

Is 1346 Judah 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 1922

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-unit multi-family residential building at 1346 Judah Street in the Inner Sunset, owned by Lee Lance, is a 2-story flats and duplex structure built in 1922. The property has a documented history of permit activity and building complaints spanning several decades. Significant structural and maintenance work occurred in the late 1980s, including a vertical extension and story addition in 1987, followed by modifications to stairs and kitchen layout. The building has undergone various exterior improvements, including siding replacement in 1996 and an attempted vinyl siding and window installation in 2005, though that permit was ultimately cancelled. Of particular concern is the property's history of unauthorized dwelling units, with multiple complaints and inspections between 1999-2002 related to illegal basement and garage in-law units, though these issues were officially abated. More recent maintenance includes water heater replacements in 2007 and 2019.

The most pressing current issue involves recurring garbage and debris problems, with ten separate incidents of overflowing city garbage cans reported between December 2024 and January 2025, all of which have been resolved. While these sanitation issues may indicate some ongoing maintenance challenges, they represent exterior rather than structural or safety concerns. The building's internal systems appear to have received regular attention, with two documented water heater replacements in the past decade. The property's historical complaints and permit activity suggest a building that has undergone various modifications and maintenance work, with particular attention needed in the past regarding unauthorized living spaces, though no such issues have been reported in recent years.

Risk rating

How 1346 Judah 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
68thpercentile

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 478 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
