140-144 Albion St

Mission Dolores, SF 94110 3568031 6 units · 3 fl · 1907

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 140-144 Albion 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 1907

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 1907
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

This three-story, six-unit multi-family residential building at 140-144 Albion St, owned by Camp Albion LLC, was constructed in 1907 and has undergone several significant safety and maintenance improvements in recent years. Most notably, in 2023, the building received major updates to its life safety systems, including a comprehensive fire alarm system upgrade with new smoke detectors, pull stations, horn strobes, and AES radio communication equipment, followed by a $25,000 reroofing project in December 2023. The building completed its mandatory seismic soft-story retrofit in 2018, demonstrating compliance with current safety standards. The property has also seen important infrastructure work, including a major sewer replacement project in 2020.

Historical records show that the building experienced multiple violations in 2004 related to fire safety, electrical systems, and heating equipment, though all were promptly addressed by August 2004. The building underwent electrical system upgrades in 2008 and received various utility and maintenance permits over the years, including multiple street space permits. Recent 311 calls from late 2024 indicate recurring issues with sidewalk cleanliness, though these appear to be external environmental matters rather than building-specific concerns. The property has maintained an active record of addressing safety requirements, with no currently active violations or ongoing safety concerns. A false fire alarm incident was recorded but resulted in no injuries or property damage. The building's documentation shows responsible property management through regular maintenance, compliance with safety regulations, and prompt attention to infrastructure needs.

Risk rating

How 140-144 Albion 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
64thpercentile

Out of 799 buildings in this neighborhood, 288 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.
