Rent & eviction protection

Is 140-144 Missouri 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.

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 1911
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 property at 140-144 Missouri Street in Potrero Hill is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1911, currently owned by 140-144 Missouri LLC. The building's maintenance history shows some positive recent attention, including a reroofing project completed in 2020 at a cost of $16,000. However, there are several concerning patterns worth noting. Most notably, the building has experienced ongoing issues with fire safety compliance, with multiple violations recorded between 2018 and 2020 regarding exit maintenance, hazardous materials, blocked exits, and storage in pathways. While some violations were corrected or abated, the building's fire safety history demonstrates a pattern of concerns that required attention. In early 2021, a complaint was filed regarding extensive exterior peeling paint and debris, though this appears to have been addressed based on the current status. The most recent activity related to the building primarily involves street-related issues, including multiple reports of garbage and debris on the street/sidewalk, parking violations, and various public works matters throughout 2024.

The property has undergone several significant interior modifications, including a bathroom addition in the basement and kitchen relocation with bathroom addition in 1987, extending its functionality to better serve multiple families. While the building has seen various improvements over the years, the pattern of fire safety violations and maintenance complaints suggests periods where attention to building upkeep and safety systems was inconsistent. The roof replacement in 2020 represents a positive investment in the building's infrastructure, though more recent complaints about exterior maintenance could indicate ongoing upkeep challenges. The majority of recent complaints in 2024 have been related to street conditions and parking, which are external to the building itself and more related to the neighborhood's infrastructure and enforcement systems.

Risk rating

How 140-144 Missouri 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.
