Rent & eviction protection

Is 1200 Mariposa 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 before 1979
Built 1907
2 or more units
3 units
Property type

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

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 1907
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 1200 Mariposa Street in Potrero Hill is a two-story, multi-family residential building constructed in 1907, containing three units and currently owned by Twin Tigers Living Trust. The building's history reveals several notable events, most significantly a 2015 attempted permit to remove an illegal dwelling unit and associated plumbing fixtures, though this permit was ultimately cancelled. A sewer repair was completed in 2008, representing the only other permitted work on record.

Recent municipal service calls between 2021 and 2025 suggest ongoing maintenance and cleanliness challenges in the immediate vicinity of the building. These issues include multiple incidents requiring general street cleaning, graffiti removal, and various sign repairs throughout 2021-2022. More recent concerns include reports of abandoned vehicles (June 2024), waste (September 2023), and general service requests (May 2024). While these external issues don't necessarily reflect on the building's internal condition, they do indicate some level of maintenance required in the surrounding area.

Risk rating

How 1200 Mariposa 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
54thpercentile

Out of 726 buildings in this neighborhood, 334 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
