Rent & eviction protection

Is 1341 Valencia 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.

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

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.

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

1341 Valencia Street is a 32-unit, three-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1904, currently owned by Murphy San Francisco LP. The property has undergone several significant improvements and faced various challenges over the past decades. Most notably, a mandatory soft-story retrofit was completed in 2019 at a cost of $150,000, bringing the building into compliance with seismic safety requirements. The building has experienced recurring fire safety concerns, with violations for alarm system maintenance in 2015, 2019, and most recently in November 2023 related to sleeping area requirements. Recent tenant complaints indicate ongoing maintenance issues, including a December 2024 heat outage and a documented cockroach infestation in October 2023, which management allegedly failed to properly address.

The building's maintenance history shows both completed repairs and some withdrawn permit applications, such as a proposed addition of two new units in 2018. Historical violations from 2000 included multiple interior and security issues, all of which were abated by August 2000. Recent 311 calls from late 2024 through early 2025 have primarily concerned external issues like garbage, debris, and sidewalk maintenance. The property has an established routine inspection history, though some violations remain in various stages of resolution, including recent fire safety-related citations. While the building has experienced periodic maintenance and safety issues, many past violations have been resolved through proper channels, including a significant focus on seismic retrofitting and fire safety improvements in recent years.

Risk rating

How 1341 Valencia 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
3rdpercentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 2309 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
