Rent & eviction protection

Is 15-17 Edith 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.

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 1924
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 Ghiglieri Family Trust owns this 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building located at 15-17 Edith Street in Telegraph Hill, which was constructed in 1924 and has undergone several significant maintenance and infrastructure updates over the years. Most recently, in June 2023, the property received substantial roofing work with permits totaling over $17,600. The building has seen major system improvements, including water heater installation in 2016, furnace replacements in 2009, and electrical upgrades in 2020 when distribution fuse boxes were converted to breaker boxes. Prior infrastructure work includes window replacements in 1999 and stucco repair due to dry rot in 2011.

Two building complaints were filed in July 2012 regarding potentially hazardous painting work, though these were promptly abated within days. A sewage backup incident was reported and resolved in September 2021, and there was one confined cooking fire incident recorded with no civilian injuries. The building's recent history has included multiple parking-related issues, with nine documented complaints about blocked driveways between 2023 and 2024, though enforcement officers were often unable to locate the offending vehicles. Additionally, there have been several reports of garbage and debris on or near the property, including incidents involving furniture, human waste, and an abandoned refrigerator between 2023 and 2025, all of which were resolved through appropriate channels.

Risk rating

How 15-17 Edith 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
79thpercentile

Out of 684 buildings in this neighborhood, 144 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Number of units

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

Neighborhood location
