Rent & eviction protection

Is 1913-1915 Hyde 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
2 or more units

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 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 three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 1913-1915 Hyde Street in Russian Hill, owned by the Mai Jean Lee Survivors Trust, has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects since its construction in 1907. The most recent major work included roofing maintenance in 2020 costing $13,000, following a previous roofing project from 1995. In 2017, a comprehensive interior renovation was completed in unit #3, including kitchen and bathroom updates with new fixtures and finishes, along with corresponding electrical and plumbing upgrades for kitchen wiring, lighting, and receptacles, totaling approximately $20,000.

The building has faced several compliance issues over the years, with the most recent cluster of violations occurring in 2019-2020 related to a vacant storefront situation, which was abated in March 2020. Prior violations from 2008 included various safety concerns that were addressed, such as electrical system issues, fire escape maintenance, and seismic strap installation. Additionally, a 2001 inspection identified several fire safety and maintenance concerns that were subsequently resolved. Recent infrastructure issues have been documented, including a sewage backup in June 2022. The property has generated multiple 311 calls over the years, primarily related to sidewalk blocking incidents (2009-2016) and cleaning issues, though most were resolved promptly. The building's maintenance history shows regular roof upkeep and periodic interior improvements, with most violations being addressed in a timely manner, though the cluster of issues from 2019-2020 indicates a period of particular concern for building maintenance and compliance.

Risk rating

How 1913-1915 Hyde 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
26thpercentile

Out of 1133 buildings in this neighborhood, 838 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
