Rent & eviction protection

Is 811 14Th 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 1923
2 or more units

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 1923
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

811 14th Street is a 12-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1923, currently owned by Webco Group LLC. The property has undergone significant renovations in recent years, including a complete reroofing project completed in August 2023 costing $24,800, and multiple unit renovations between 2014 and 2022 involving kitchen and bathroom remodels in units 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 11, with some projects also adding or modifying bedrooms and updating electrical systems. Major infrastructure improvements include a sewer line and house trap replacement in 2018, electrical service upgrades in 2014, and the installation of a 200-amp, 13-meter electrical service.

The building has experienced several maintenance and safety issues requiring attention between 2004 and 2023. Most recent complaints from April 2023, which are still active, involve requirements for fire safety compliance affidavits, fire extinguisher maintenance, and gas utility shutoff tools. Previous historical complaints from 2014 indicate past concerns with building maintenance, including reports of flies near garbage receptacles and general cleanliness issues in common areas. There have been multiple fire safety-related complaints over the years, with several being marked as "Condition Corrected" or having "No Merit" upon investigation. Notable historical events include a series of renovation/permit disputes in 2013-2014 regarding seismic upgrades and construction work that allegedly destabilized the building, though these issues appear to have been resolved.

Risk rating

How 811 14Th 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
9thpercentile

Out of 287 buildings in this neighborhood, 261 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
