Rent & eviction protection

Is 1364-1368 Natoma 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 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1364-1368 Natoma St in the Inner Mission, owned by Lara Emma and built in 1906, has experienced several significant maintenance and habitability issues over recent years. Most recently, in December 2023, there were concerns about recurring issues with a backed-up backyard drain affecting all units. Prior to this, the building faced multiple water-related problems, including window leakage causing moisture damage and mold, with complaints filed in 2022 about an unaddressed leaking window pane and bathroom ceiling issues. The property has undergone some structural work, including foundation underpinning work filed in 2018 at a cost of $35,000, though this permit status is listed as "Filed". Multiple violations were recorded in 2003 related to security and safety requirements, including issues with handrails, self-closing doors, and egress obstructions, though these were all abated by January 2004.

More recent concerns from 2022-2023 include violations regarding interior surfaces, electrical outlets, and light and ventilation issues, with some permits being obtained to address these problems, such as a $1,000 permit in October 2023 for wall repairs and siding work. The building's maintenance history reveals a pattern of water-related issues, with multiple complaints about drainage problems and moisture damage, particularly in the backyard and around windows. The property has also experienced occasional parking enforcement issues in the surrounding area, with several complaints about vehicles blocking driveways recorded between 2022-2024. While some historical issues have been resolved, the building continues to face ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly relating to water damage and drainage systems, based on the most recent complaints and repair work performed.

Risk rating

How 1364-1368 Natoma 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
5thpercentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 2261 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
