Mission Terrace, SF 94112 3144B035 3 units · 2 fl · 1966

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 1846-1850 San Jose 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 before 1979
Built 1966
2 or more units

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.

Built 1966
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 1846-1850 San Jose Avenue is a two-story, multi-family residential building constructed in 1966, containing 3 units and located in the Mission Terrace neighborhood. Most recently, in December 2022, the building underwent improvements to comply with the Accessible Business Entrance program (ABE), including the installation of automatic door openers and related hardware, representing the property's commitment to accessibility standards. The building has undergone several significant renovations over its lifetime, including two roofing projects in 1991 and 1999, and a storefront modification to remove a metal gate and install a new power-operated door with push buttons.

The property has a history of building violations primarily concentrated in 2000 and 2011, with issues related to fire safety equipment, including fire extinguisher maintenance and fire escape ladder repairs, as well as plumbing leaks and gas utility shutoff tool requirements. Fortunately, all these violations were properly addressed and abated. The building's current owner, R C Carraro Prpts Llc, has maintained the property with regular updates, though there have been multiple reports of illegal parking and driveway blocking incidents in the surrounding area between 2020 and 2024, suggesting ongoing challenges with street parking enforcement in the vicinity. Recent planning records confirm the completion of accessibility improvements, including the installation of door power operators and related modifications to meet ABE compliance requirements.

Risk rating

How 1846-1850 San Jose 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
65thpercentile
