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 1986
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 three-story multi-family residential building at 1085 Capp Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood, owned by Joseph & Mary Uniacke Revocable Trust, was constructed in 1986 and contains 4 apartment units. The building has undergone several significant safety and modernization improvements in recent years, most notably a comprehensive fire alarm system upgrade in 2022 costing $18,600 to comply with San Francisco Fire Code requirements, followed by a related electrical modification in July 2023 that included low frequency sounders in sleeping areas and updated devices to meet current fire safety standards. The property has a documented history of addressing safety concerns, including a cluster of fire safety and security violations in 2004 that were promptly resolved within two months, and a faulty wiring issue in 2001 that was addressed within two months.

The building has undergone various improvements and maintenance work over the years, including a kitchen and bath cosmetic remodel in 2018 (valued at $15,000) and historical records show modifications to the sprinkler system in 1985. While there have been several 311 calls regarding street and sidewalk conditions near the property between 2020 and 2022, these were primarily related to general cleaning issues and tree maintenance concerns, rather than building-specific problems. The property was subject to a proposed expansion project in 2016 seeking to construct a new two-family dwelling unit, though this raised variance requests regarding rear yard setback and open space requirements, suggesting some complexity in development history. The most recent building inspection records indicate no active violations or issues, and the building's safety systems have received regular attention to ensure compliance with current codes and standards.

Risk rating

How 1085 Capp 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
76thpercentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 571 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.
