Rent & eviction protection

Is 133 Lower Ter 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.

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.

Just-cause eviction

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 residential building at 133 Lower Terrace in Corona Heights is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1912, currently owned by Lewy Eishen Family Living Trust. The property's maintenance record shows significant structural work in the early 1990s, including concrete footing repairs (1992) and a roof replacement (1989). More recently, there was a gas house line extension permitted in 2013, though this permit has since expired.

The street-level activity around the property has been notable, particularly in the past year (2023-2024), with multiple reports of parking violations including abandoned vehicles and driveway blockages. Between February and April 2024, there were six incidents related to parking issues, though many were resolved when enforcement officers arrived. Two driveway blocking incidents were reported in 2024, one resulting in a citation. Prior to these recent concerns, there was a sidewalk blockage by cafe furniture in 2021, an abandoned vehicle report in late 2019, and some street cleaning and tree maintenance issues documented in 2019 and 2017. The tree maintenance case from 2017 involved an overgrown tree near communication lines, which was addressed by PG&E with an annual inspection agreement.

Risk rating

How 133 Lower Ter'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
72ndpercentile

Out of 348 buildings in this neighborhood, 97 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Construction spend, owner's portfolio

Estimated permit value across all of this owner's buildings.

Building age

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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