Rent & eviction protection

Is 1156-1158 Geneva Ave 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 1925
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 1925
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 1156-1158 Geneva Avenue property is a two-story mixed-use building constructed in 1925, containing three residential units and ground-floor commercial space, currently owned by Gus Leveroni 2009 Trust. The building has undergone several significant modifications and faced various compliance issues in recent years. In 2018, the commercial space underwent unauthorized tenant improvements, including installation of counters, plexi-glass partition barriers, and electrical work, which led to violation notices and a director's hearing in 2019. This work was subsequently permitted and completed in 2018, with an associated cost of $4,000. The property has received attention for multiple maintenance and service issues between 2023-2024, including garbage and debris complaints, a sewage backup incident in October 2023, and multiple reports of sidewalk parking violations. Electrical improvements were made in 2019-2020, including the installation of handicap access features and additional receptacle outlets. An April 2015 fire alarm system complaint was investigated but found to have no merit. Historical records show a reroofing project was completed in 2004 at a cost of $10,300, and a street space permit was issued in 2018. The property currently stands with multiple closed cases relating to garbage concerns and infrastructure issues, though these do not appear to represent ongoing or serious structural problems.

Risk rating

How 1156-1158 Geneva Ave'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
66thpercentile

Out of 119 buildings in this neighborhood, 40 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
