Inner Sunset, SF 94122 1838017A 3 units · 2 fl · 1939

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 1148-1150 Kirkham 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 1939

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 1939
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-story multi-family residential building at 1148-1150 Kirkham Street in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood was constructed in 1939 and contains three units. The property, currently owned by the Mcginty Family Living Trust, has undergone several significant improvements over the past decade, most notably an extensive solar panel installation in 2013 that included 17 photovoltaic modules and electrical upgrades for all three units. The building has had two major construction projects in the last 15 years: a 2010 permit for rebuilding second egress stairs and adding rear decks, which was followed by a 2013 revision removing the kitchen remodel component from the scope of work.

The building's maintenance history shows one notable cluster of issues in late 2002, when multiple violations were documented during a routine inspection, primarily relating to fire safety concerns such as gas utility shutoff tools, fire extinguisher requirements, and combustible storage under stairs. These violations were all addressed and abated by January 2003. Historical records also show termite work was completed in 1991, and a compliance-related improvement was made in 1987. More recently, between 2020-2023, there have been several reports regarding street and sidewalk maintenance issues near the property, including parking violations, abandoned vehicles, and general cleaning needs, though these are external to the building itself. The property had one regular housing inspection in 2001 that was resolved, and there have been no active building violations on record since 2003.

Risk rating

How 1148-1150 Kirkham 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
30thpercentile

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 1045 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
