Rent & eviction protection

Is 1370-1374 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.

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 property at 1370-1374 Natoma Street is a two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1906, currently owned by 1370 Natoma LLC. The building underwent extensive renovations between 2019-2023, including the addition of a new basement unit, installation of full fire sprinkler systems throughout (completed in 2020 for $30,000), comprehensive plumbing upgrades including radiant heating, and electrical rewiring with new service installation for all units. Recent maintenance includes waterproofing work on stairs to the roof completed in 2023, and a kitchen remodel in 2022.

The building has experienced several significant events and issues that warrant attention. In 2018, multiple building violations were documented, including problems with smoke detectors, floor coverings, light fixtures, security locks, interior surfaces, and mold, though all these violations were abated by May 2018. More recent concerns include an active complaint from February 2023 regarding unauthorized roof deck construction and complaints about construction noise and working under expired permits in 2022. A water heating issue and ceiling leakage complaint was filed in January 2023. The property showed substantial construction activity during 2020-2023, with multiple complaints about noise, dust, and construction debris impacting neighboring properties. While the building has undergone significant improvements and many safety-related upgrades, including a new fire alarm system and electrical improvements, the pattern of construction-related complaints and recent complaints about unauthorized work suggests ongoing management challenges related to maintenance and permit compliance.

Risk rating

How 1370-1374 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

Grade A–B — Low risk

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.
