Rent & eviction protection

Is 127 Corbett 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.

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.

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 127 Corbett Ave is a single-story, two-unit multi-family residential building located in Corona Heights, constructed in 1937 and currently owned by Wesley & Jennifer Horner Re. The building has undergone significant renovations and maintenance work over the past two decades, including multiple roofing projects (most recently in 2007 at a cost of $7,258), comprehensive window replacements in 2006, a kitchen remodel in 2007, and a bathroom renovation in 2004. The electrical system has been updated with the most recent work in 2018 involving the installation of new outlets, lighting, and a sub-panel, along with earlier improvements including a conversion from overhead to underground service in 2005 and kitchen rewiring in 2007.

Recent and ongoing concerns primarily relate to tree-related issues affecting the property, with multiple reports between 2022 and 2024 documenting problems with trees lifting the sidewalk. There is also one report from 2022 regarding a collapsed sidewalk. The building had a fire-related complaint in February 2020 that was promptly resolved. In 2021, there were several reports regarding waste management issues (toters left out), though inspectors found no violations. The property has maintained an active maintenance schedule with regular updates to its infrastructure, including plumbing, electrical systems, and general upkeep, though there are some ongoing external concerns related to tree management and sidewalk maintenance that remain open as of 2024. The building's maintenance history shows consistent investment in property improvements, with significant work on both interior living spaces and exterior systems over the years.

Risk rating

How 127 Corbett 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
77thpercentile

Out of 348 buildings in this neighborhood, 80 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
