Rent & eviction protection

Is 1471-1475 9Th Ave 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 1909

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 1909
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 1471-1475 9th Avenue in the Inner Sunset is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1909, with a commercial space and owned by the Darrah Robinson Family Trust. The building has undergone several significant renovations and faced various maintenance issues over the years. In 2005-2007, substantial improvements were made including a rear stair replacement, kitchen remodeling, addition of a full bathroom, and conversion of a former beauty shop space to medical/personal service offices with various utilities upgrades. More recently, in 2019-2020, there were compliance issues regarding an unauthorized outdoor deck and shed, which led to building permits to address these violations, culminating in a requirement to reduce the height of the shed and trellises to comply with Planning Code regulations. The property has experienced some infrastructure challenges, including sewer lateral work completed in 2022, and multiple sewer backup incidents reported in early 2024.

The building's maintenance history shows a mix of resolved issues and some ongoing concerns. Recent service requests in 2023-2024 included sidewalk defects, multiple sewer-related problems, and various street maintenance needs. While a fire safety complaint regarding blocked exits was filed and resolved in 2007, there have been no subsequent fire-related incidents on record. The property has undergone various electrical upgrades over the years, including an underground service conversion in 2003 and additional circuit installations in 2005, though the electrical system appears to have remained stable since then. Recent parking enforcement actions have been documented in 2023-2024, though these are not directly related to building safety or maintenance.

Risk rating

How 1471-1475 9Th Ave'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
46thpercentile

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 806 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

What's driving this score

Property class: apartment building

Apartment building — this property classification influences expected violation rates.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.
