Rent & eviction protection

Is 1047-1049 Lombard 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 1948
2 or more units

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 1948
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 property at 1047-1049 Lombard Street is a two-unit residential building constructed in 1948 in San Francisco's Russian Hill neighborhood. The two-story flats/duplex building, currently owned by the Abouesh Living Revocable Trust, has undergone several significant renovations over its lifetime, with the most substantial proposed work occurring in 2016. That year, permits were filed for an extensive vertical expansion including a new roof deck, infilling the rear deck on the first floor, adding balconies, and comprehensive interior remodeling of both units, including new kitchens, laundry facilities, and five full bathrooms, though these permits were marked as filed rather than completed. More recent improvements include a $21,500 reroofing project completed in 2021, which was documented as building permit number 202102114487.

The building and immediate vicinity have experienced various maintenance and service issues over recent years, with significant events including a water service request in December 2024 and ongoing tree maintenance issues as of August 2024. The property has faced some neighborhood challenges, particularly in early 2022, with multiple reports of human/animal waste requiring street cleaning. There were also several abandoned vehicle reports in the vicinity between 2021-2022, though these were generally resolved promptly. A notable infrastructure issue occurred in February 2021 involving a cracked wall adjacent to the roadway, which was boarded up and coned while being addressed through proper channels. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, with records of past improvements including kitchen cabinet replacements in 1992 and an earlier reroofing project in 1996, though that permit is now expired.

Risk rating

How 1047-1049 Lombard 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
81stpercentile

Out of 1133 buildings in this neighborhood, 215 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Neighborhood location
