Rent & eviction protection

Is 431-433 Lisbon 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 1911

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 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 three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 431-433 Lisbon Street in the Excelsior neighborhood, owned by Johnny Marenco, has a documented history of maintenance and compliance issues since its construction in 1911. Most recently, in October 2024, the building was issued permits for repairs including handrail work, window repairs, smoke detector updates, and stairway repairs. However, there are numerous active violations as of July 2024, including electrical issues, water damage, mold, damaged paint, and safety concerns regarding smoke detectors and water heaters. The property has a history of unpermitted modifications, with active complaints from 2004 regarding unauthorized construction including a horizontal addition and other modifications, along with multiple plumbing and electrical violations.

Earlier records show persistent maintenance issues, with permits from 2004 addressing rear stairs repair and deck work, and complaints about various problems including plumbing leaks in 2009, unauthorized construction in 2014, and multiple garbage and debris incidents in late 2024. Recent inspections have revealed significant interior problems, including evidence of mold/mildew, water damage, electrical outlet issues, and concerns about hazardous mechanical equipment. The building's history also includes multiple complaints about illegal parking and street cleaning issues in late 2024, though these are external to the building itself. While some historical complaints have been resolved or closed, many current violations and complaints remain active as of 2024, indicating ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges for the property.

Risk rating

How 431-433 Lisbon 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
31stpercentile

Out of 337 buildings in this neighborhood, 233 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.

Construction spend, owner's portfolio

Estimated permit value across all of this owner's buildings.
