Rent & eviction protection

Is 10-12 Saturn 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 1908

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

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

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 1908
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 three-story multi-family residential building at 10-12 Saturn Street in Corona Heights, owned by Dorothy A Geoghegan Revoc T, was constructed in 1908 and contains four apartment units. The property has undergone several significant renovations and improvements since the 1980s, including kitchen and bathroom renovations in 1990 (though some permits from that period are now expired), a kitchen cabinet renovation in 1997, and underpinning work completed in 1983.

In 2002, the building underwent a routine housing inspection that revealed multiple fire safety and security issues, including problems with fire extinguishers, egress obstruction, and door security, though these violations were all promptly abated by February 2003. More recent maintenance concerns have emerged, particularly in mid-2022, when there were reports of a collapsed sidewalk, public stairway defect, and a damaged side sewer vent cover, though these issues were resolved through the Department of Public Works. The building experienced minimal incidents requiring emergency response, with only one recorded medical assist situation. Recent 311 calls have primarily concerned parking issues, with several reports of illegal parking and abandoned vehicles in the vicinity between 2021 and 2024. While the building has maintained basic code compliance since the 2002 violations were addressed, the sizable gap between major renovations suggests that some building systems may be due for updates, though no recent violations or complaints have been recorded regarding safety systems or structural concerns.

Risk rating

How 10-12 Saturn 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
34thpercentile

Out of 348 buildings in this neighborhood, 230 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
