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 1981
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 119 Bache Street in Bernal Heights, owned by Sonia S Guillen Revocable Living Trust, was constructed in 1981 and contains two units. One of the most significant and concerning issues on record was a faulty wiring complaint filed in March 2005 through Housing Inspection Services, involving improper electrical connections between a tenant's apartment and common areas including the laundry room, garage, and outside lights, leading to unusually high PG&E bills; however, this complaint is currently listed as "Not Active" with no record of resolution.

The property has experienced various maintenance and service issues over the years, with the most recent notable event being a parking enforcement call in April 2023 regarding an illegally parked Toyota Prius, though the vehicle was unable to be located. Other incidents include a fire department service request in May 2021 that was ultimately deemed to have no merit, and several infrastructure-related issues such as street light repairs (December 2019), sidewalk blockage due to privately maintained foliage (December 2017), and two pavement defects (August 2009 and July 2011). The building's residents have also utilized city services for typical urban needs, including a temporary moving sign request in May 2013, though this was a routine administrative matter. While most issues reported have been resolved through proper channels, the historical electrical wiring concern from 2005 stands out as the most significant resident-impacting incident on record.

Risk rating

How 119 Bache 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
64thpercentile

Out of 1276 buildings in this neighborhood, 459 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
