Rent & eviction protection

Is 126-128 Henry 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 1933
2 or more units

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

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 1933
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 126-128 Henry Street is a two-story, two-unit multi-family residential building located in the Duboce Triangle neighborhood, built in 1933 and currently owned by the Brian C Harrison Living Trust. The building has undergone significant safety and infrastructure improvements in recent years, with particular attention to fire safety systems. From 2021 to 2022, multiple permits were issued to install and revise fire sprinkler systems, including the addition of first-floor sprinklers and a new sprinkler monitoring system. Major plumbing work was also completed during this period, including the installation of new copper water pipes, shower pans for each unit, and comprehensive plumbing upgrades for bathrooms, laundry areas, kitchens, and gas systems. In 2020, a substantial private roof deck project was completed, costing $125,000, providing new outdoor space for upper unit #128.

The building's history includes some notable events requiring attention to resident safety and comfort. In 2007, there were multiple violations related to interior surfaces, including damaged walls and lead-based paint concerns, though these were all abated by November 2007. More recently, the building experienced two complaints in 2020 regarding work being performed beyond the scope of issued permits and potential violations of shelter-in-place orders, though both cases were marked as not active. The property underwent extensive electrical upgrades in 2021, including complete rewiring and panel upgrade work for all floors. Two buyouts were executed in November 2019, involving three tenants at 126 Henry Street ($110,000) and two tenants at 128 Henry Street ($95,000). The building has experienced recurring issues with driveway blocking, with multiple parking enforcement calls logged between 2023-2024, though these are external to the building's condition and safety matters. An ADU addition application was submitted in 2021, along with landscape-related work proposals, though these were reported as informational and no substantial facade modifications were planned.

Risk rating

How 126-128 Henry 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
62ndpercentile

Out of 287 buildings in this neighborhood, 109 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
