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 1963
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 two-story multi-family residential building at 711-713 Capp Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood was constructed in 1963 and consists of 5 to 14 units, though the exact number of units is not specified in the records. The property has undergone significant improvements in recent years, with a comprehensive renovation program focusing on unit upgrades between 2017 and 2019. All six units (1 through 6) received kitchen and bathroom remodels including new cabinets, fixtures, and appliances, with associated plumbing and electrical work. Major infrastructure improvements include a completed soft-story retrofit (Classified as Tier 3) with steel moment frames and plywood shear walls in 2017 (cost: $85,000), and the installation of new 400-amp underground electrical service with seven meters in late 2017.

The building has a documented history of fire safety violations from September 2015, all of which were resolved by April 2016, including issues with fire escape obstruction, fire extinguisher maintenance, carbon monoxide alarms, and fire escape ladder functionality. Recent maintenance issues include a sewage backup incident in November 2024 and multiple reports of driveway blocking violations in late 2024. A planning application for horizontal and vertical additions and seismic retrofit work was withdrawn, while records show completed work including window replacements (with aluminum-clad wood windows facing the street and vinyl elsewhere) in December 2017. The building's electrical system has been modernized significantly, with multiple permits showing installation of new smoke detection systems, appliance circuits, and safety features.

Risk rating

How 711-713 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

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.

Neighborhood percentile
96th percentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 95 are predicted to be safer.

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 location

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

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

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

Building age

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 71.6%
Moderate concern 19.6%
Severe concern 8.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
