Rent & eviction protection

Is 90 Bartlett St rent-controlled?

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 1986
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
May be covered by AB 1482. The building is old enough for the statewide rent cap (5% + regional CPI, capped at 10% per year) and just-cause protection after 12 months of tenancy.

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 51-unit multi-family residential property at 3255 21st Street, built in 1986 and managed by Casa De La Raza Inc, has undergone significant building maintenance and improvements over the past several years. The building experienced persistent elevator issues between 2016-2017, with multiple outages affecting disabled residents, though these were addressed through subsequent elevator modifications and system upgrades in 2018, including an elevator modification and replacement of the shunt trip system. Window improvements have been a major focus, with multiple projects completed between 2017-2019, including the replacement of 116 windows in 2019 and 104 windows in 2017, utilizing fiberglass and vinyl materials to meet modern efficiency standards.

The property has maintained an active schedule of safety system upgrades, including a 2018 fire alarm panel replacement and the installation of additional fire safety equipment. Building maintenance records show regular attention to essential systems, such as water heater replacements in various buildings from 2007-2016, and plumbing upgrades including the replacement of landscape backflow valves in 2012. Several building violations related to interior maintenance (2014) and elevator service (2017) were documented but were addressed and abated by April 2018. Recent electrical complaints (2019) regarding unauthorized wiring in storage areas were investigated and closed. The property has also experienced periodic issues with exterior maintenance, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls between late 2024 and early 2025 regarding garbage and debris, though most of these were resolved promptly.

Risk rating

How 90 Bartlett 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.
