Rent & eviction protection

Is 94-96 Malta Dr 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 1977

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 Murphy Family Trust owns this 1977-built, two-unit multi-family residential building located in Glen Park, which is classified as a Flats & Duplex structure. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most recent being substantial updates completed in November 2023, including the structural reinforcement of two existing balconies on both the first and second floors, along with the replacement of two sliding glass doors and fourteen windows with energy-efficient units featuring a maximum U-factor of 0.30. Other notable work includes a gas houseline extension completed in October 2019, and a reroofing project from May 2001, though this permit has since expired.

The building's recent maintenance record shows considerable activity in the latter part of 2024, primarily consisting of responses to street-level concerns rather than building-specific issues. There were multiple reports of garbage and debris on the street and sidewalk in October and November 2024, with most cases being resolved promptly by city services. Additionally, there were two reports of graffiti (one on a fire police call box and one on the street) logged in November 2024, though one of these cases was resolved. The property appears to have received proper attention to its structural elements with the recent balcony reinforcement work, which included posts being tied back to the building wall and window replacements using fiberglass sash, as documented in the planning records. While there have been several municipal service calls in the vicinity of the building, these primarily relate to street maintenance and traffic issues rather than any direct concerns about the building's condition or safety.

Risk rating

How 94-96 Malta Dr'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
68thpercentile

Out of 364 buildings in this neighborhood, 116 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
