Rent & eviction protection

Is 1134-1136 Church 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 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 1134-1136 Church Street property, owned by the Kushinsky Family Trust, is a three-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, containing two units in the Noe Valley neighborhood. The building has undergone significant maintenance and improvements over the past several years, with substantial work performed between 2019 and 2024 including siding replacement ($34,000 in 2021), window retrofitting ($17,100 in 2021), complete reroofing ($39,500 in 2020), and rear yard stair repairs ($3,000 in 2019). Earlier renovations included bathroom and kitchen remodeling in 2014, with associated electrical and plumbing upgrades, and bathroom improvements in 2011 that added new fixtures and ventilation. The building's systems have also been modernized with a 200-amp electrical service upgrade completed in 2014.

The property's maintenance record shows addressing of various structural and safety issues over time, including wood rot in 2019 and stair repairs in the rear yard. While there have been some historical complaints regarding heating issues (resolved in 2002) and illegal rooms (2010), and a 2014 complaint about unpermitted work, these matters were not active as of the latest records and the building has received regular upkeep. Recent issues documented through 311 calls primarily relate to exterior matters such as graffiti (resolved), tree maintenance (currently open), and sidewalk defects (currently open), suggesting ongoing attention to property maintenance needs. The building's permit history demonstrates a pattern of proactive maintenance and systematic upgrades, with particularly notable improvements to energy efficiency through window replacements and building envelope upgrades.

Risk rating

How 1134-1136 Church 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
96thpercentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 75 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 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.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

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