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 2020
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
Likely exempt from AB 1482. Housing with a certificate of occupancy issued within the previous 15 years is exempt from the state rent cap and just-cause rules.

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

1801 Mission Street is a mixed-use, seven-story building constructed in 2018-2019, containing 17 residential units above ground floor commercial spaces. The construction process brought several permit-related activities, including the installation of a new fire sprinkler system, comprehensive electrical work, and plumbing installations for 17 residences. The building has undergone multiple occupancy modifications, with recent permits (2022) allowing for the establishment of Intermediate Length Occupancy (ILO) units in apartments #201, #203, and #402. A significant recent development is the ground floor tenant improvement work permitted in January 2024, valued at $32,784, which includes ADA restroom facilities and electrical upgrades, though no first use has been proposed.

The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to safety systems, with fire safety being a recurring focus area. There have been multiple fire code violation notices between 2013 and 2024, including a recent violation issued in October 2024 regarding the ERRCS permit. The fire safety systems have generally been maintained, with most violations being promptly corrected. Recent building complaints have included issues with a parking area automatic door opener (2023) and a vacant commercial storefront violation (2023), though the latter was abated in November 2023. The property has experienced recurring issues with the vacant storefront monitoring fee requirements, as evidenced by multiple complaints between 2019 and 2023. Recent sidewalk cleanliness concerns have been documented through 311 calls in late 2024, primarily involving garbage and debris, though these are related to the street area rather than the building itself. The building has also experienced various fire response scenarios, though none resulted in civilian injuries, with incidents typically involving alarm system activations or routine service calls rather than significant emergencies.

Risk rating

How 1801 Mission 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
2ndpercentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 2332 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
