Rent & eviction protection

Is 1152-1154 Capp 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

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 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 two-unit residential building at 1152-1154 Capp Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1907, currently owned by Jeffrey Chiang. The building's documented permit history is minimal and primarily dates back to 1989 when reroofing work was completed, and in 2009 when a street space and sidewalk permit was issued with an associated cost of $1.

The property has experienced significant issues in early 2025, particularly during January when there was a notable pattern of encampments in the vicinity, with multiple duplicate cases reported and subsequently resolved. A concerning report regarding an inadequately maintained building exterior was filed on January 6, 2025, and transferred to the SF Department of Public Health's Environmental Health Services Healthy Housing Program. Additionally, there were reports of garbage and debris on the street, including a mattress and transit shelter platform, with one such case being forwarded to the Health Department. These recent incidents suggest ongoing challenges related to the building's surroundings and maintenance, though most cases were successfully resolved through various city agencies. The building's historical records show no documented tenant buyouts at either unit address.

Risk rating

How 1152-1154 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
87thpercentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 309 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.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

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.
