Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 378-380 Madrid 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

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 378-380 Madrid Street in the Excelsior neighborhood is a single-story, multi-family residential building constructed in 1907, currently owned by the Leon Living Trust and containing two dwelling units on one parcel. The building has undergone significant improvements and maintenance over the past decade, with the most substantial work occurring in 2013-2014. During this period, approximately $97,000 was invested in various repairs and upgrades, including foundation work, kitchenette remodeling, dry rot repairs, termite damage remediation, and electrical improvements such as the installation of a 60-amp subpanel in the rear building. The plumbing system received major attention during this time, with the replacement of water supply lines, installation of new fixtures, and the repiping of gas services for multiple appliances. Earlier maintenance records show attention to both structural and comfort systems, including bathroom renovations in 2011 and gas service upgrades in 2012.

The building's history indicates regular maintenance and prompt attention to issues such as termite damage and water damage, with all major repairs being properly permitted and completed. The most recent activity associated with the address was a 311 call regarding an abandoned vehicle in October 2024, which was handled by parking enforcement and is unrelated to the building's condition or management. The property's documented improvements suggest a well-maintained structure, with particular focus on addressing both routine maintenance and significant structural improvements when needed.

Risk rating

How 378-380 Madrid 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
49thpercentile
