Rent & eviction protection

Is 115 Saint Marys 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 1900
2 or more units

Property type
Multi-Family Residential

RH2
Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

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 115 Saint Marys Ave in Bernal Heights, owned by Luis & Adelaida Roguel since 2017, is a 1-story multi-family structure built in 1900. The building's documented history includes several maintenance and improvement projects, most notably a reroofing job in 2001 costing $4,700 and a water heater replacement in 2017, both of which have since expired. In 2004, there was a building complaint filed regarding unauthorized room addition at the back of the building, though this complaint is currently listed as not active.

The property has experienced recurring maintenance and infrastructure issues, particularly in 2019 when multiple problems were reported, including missing side sewer vent covers, which remain unresolved in one instance. That year also saw a resolved water service request involving the PUC. The exterior of the property has required regular attention, with multiple reports of loose garbage requiring street cleaning services in 2019, 2020, and most recently in October 2023. There have been two documented vehicle repair noise incidents near the property in 2020 and 2022, as well as a graffiti incident on the front sidewalk in 2018, though this was determined to be non-offensive. The most recent building-related activity on record is from October 2023, when public works addressed an abandoned barricade near the property. While many of these issues have been resolved through appropriate channels, the frequency of maintenance calls and exterior cleaning requirements suggests ongoing general upkeep is necessary in this neighborhood context.

Risk rating

How 115 Saint Marys 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
