Rent & eviction protection

Is 431-435 Capp 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 1900

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.

Built 1900
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 3-unit, 4-story multi-family residential building at 431-435 Capp Street in the Inner Mission, built in 1900, has undergone several significant renovations and improvements in recent years, with the most substantial work occurring in 2017-2019. The property underwent major exterior work in 2022, including the replacement of siding with fiber cement boards and waterproofing, costing $11,000. Important safety upgrades were implemented in 2017-2019, including the installation of a fire sprinkler system on the first floor and garage, a monitored fire alarm system with heat detectors, and new plumbing infrastructure. The building also received sustainability improvements, such as a 5.4 kW solar panel installation in 2019.

Prior to these improvements, the building had several maintenance issues, including termite problems (2018), lead paint remediation (2018), and outdated plumbing systems that encroached on the neighbor's property (2018). The property underwent significant interior remodeling work in 2017-2018, with updates to all three units including bathroom and kitchen renovations, HVAC installation, and comprehensive electrical system upgrades. A recent cluster of 311 calls from late 2024 regarding street cleaning and graffiti suggests ongoing external maintenance challenges, while a vacant building complaint from 2019 indicates some period of disuse prior to the recent renovations. The building's recent permits and improvements suggest a substantial investment in safety, comfort, and sustainability, addressing many of the legacy maintenance issues documented in earlier complaints and work records.

Risk rating

How 431-435 Capp 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
29thpercentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 1690 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
