Rent & eviction protection

Is 41-43 Juniper 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 1906

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 1906
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 South of Market property at 41-43 Juniper St is a two-story, multi-family residential building constructed in 1906, currently owned by Thomas J & Kathleen O Fanuc, containing 4 units. The building's maintenance history reveals several significant events impacting resident experience and safety, particularly in recent years. Most notably, there were multiple fire code violations cited in October 2024, along with sprinkler system issues in September 2024, indicating ongoing fire safety concerns. A recent complaint from February 2024 reported damaged floor covering in kitchen, bathroom, and hallway, along with problems of mold and rodent infestation. The building has experienced recurring fire safety system problems, with documented violations related to alarm systems in 2016-2019 and sprinkler systems in 2024. The property underwent significant work in 1998 to address fire escape stairs and bathroom legalization due to dry rot repairs, though these historical issues suggest past maintenance challenges.

The building's violation and inspection history between 2003-2011 shows a pattern of safety-related concerns that were typically addressed within a reasonable timeframe. In October 2003, multiple violations were documented regarding fire safety equipment, smoke detectors, and security features, all of which were abated by November 2003. Earlier complaints from 1995-1996 indicated serious maintenance issues, including missing smoke detectors, electrical problems, and water supply issues, though these were resolved by 1998. Recent 311 calls from late 2024 indicate persistent sanitation issues in the vicinity of the property, though these are external to the building itself. The most recent building complaints and fire violations suggest ongoing challenges with maintaining up-to-date safety systems, particularly regarding fire sprinklers and alarms, though immediate life safety threats appear to be addressed promptly when violations are cited.

Risk rating

How 41-43 Juniper 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
47thpercentile

Out of 430 buildings in this neighborhood, 228 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
