Rent & eviction protection

Is 150-152 Liberty 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 1922

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 1922
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 two-unit residential building at 150-152 Liberty Street, owned by Virginia C. Mehegan and constructed in 1922, has undergone significant improvements over recent years, with the most substantial renovations occurring in 2022. Major projects included the conversion of existing storage into conditioned common space and comprehensive renovations of kitchens and bathrooms on the second and third floors, with a permitted cost of $284,000. The property has also been equipped with modern energy systems, including the installation of a 6.0 kW solar panel and battery system (completed in 2022 and newly installed again in 2023) at a cost of approximately $37,438, demonstrating commitment to sustainable energy solutions. Additional improvements included window replacements, with new aluminum-clad wood windows installed at the side and rear of the building, and the construction of a rear deck extension. All electrical systems were upgraded with new wiring, receptacles, lights, and a new subpanel during 2022 renovations.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to basic infrastructure needs, including a complete reroofing in 2008 and an underground electrical service conversion with 200-amp, 2-meter service installation in 2004. While there have been some neighborhood issues reported through 311 calls, such as street cleaning needs and parking complaints, these appear to be typical urban maintenance matters rather than building-specific concerns. Recent calls related to encampments and medical waste were reported in the vicinity, but were either resolved or determined to be invalid upon inspection, with no direct connection to the building itself. The property has maintained active compliance with permit requirements, though some plumbing and mechanical permits from 2022 are marked as expired; however, given the scale of the improvements, these may have been completed under different permit classifications.

Risk rating

How 150-152 Liberty 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
99thpercentile

Out of 1278 buildings in this neighborhood, 13 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.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Neighborhood location

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

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.
