Rent & eviction protection

Is 359-361 Arlington 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 1900

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 1900
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 359-361 Arlington Street in Glen Park, owned by Jeremiah Webster Schaub Phi, has undergone significant renovations and improvements since being built in 1900. The most notable recent work occurred in 2022-2023, when major remodels were conducted to address a long-standing notice of violation (NOV 200450352) from 2004, which remains active. This violation identified multiple issues including deteriorating stairs, heating system problems, and various interior maintenance needs. The 2022-2023 renovations, with a cost of approximately $68,263, focused on making the rear deck and stairs code compliant, updating kitchens, installing new windows and sliding doors, and replacing wooden fencing. Prior to this, from 2021, the property underwent substantial bathroom remodels, stair repairs, and furnace replacements in both units, along with electrical panel upgrades and plumbing improvements totaling over $120,000.

The building has seen regular maintenance and upgrades over the years, including a complete reroofing in 2017 ($25,000) and various plumbing updates, though some permits show as expired or incomplete. While most major systems have been addressed through these improvements, the building retains an active 2004 violation status which identified various maintenance issues including stair deterioration, heating system repairs, and plumbing concerns. Recent 311 calls from 2024 primarily relate to external matters such as parking issues, street cleaning, and graffiti, rather than building-specific complaints. The property has undergone necessary historical resource assessments and planning approvals, with work being performed under the direction of Schaub Ly Architects, Inc.

Risk rating

How 359-361 Arlington 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
83rdpercentile

Out of 364 buildings in this neighborhood, 62 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 (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.

Building age

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