Rent & eviction protection

Is 1216-1218 Green 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 1911

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 1911
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 1216-1218 Green Street in Russian Hill is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1911, currently owned by Mirza Sultan. The building's maintenance record shows consistent upkeep of essential elements, including a significant window upgrade in 2017 when six front facade double-hung wood windows were replaced with Marvin aluminum-clad wood windows, and a complete reroofing project in 2012 costing $6,500. Historical records indicate earlier roofing work was attempted in 1994, though those permits expired.

Recent incidents in the vicinity of the building reflect typical urban challenges rather than building-specific issues. The most recent maintenance concern is a currently open case from February 2020 regarding a lifted sidewalk. Other neighborhood incidents have included various street and sidewalk maintenance requests, such as tree landscaping work (2018), illegal postings (2015), and temporary sign requests (2013). There has been one building-specific maintenance issue noted through 311 calls: a merchandise display blocking the sidewalk in June 2018, which was resolved through outreach and enforcement. The property's historical permit records show regular maintenance of both the building and its immediate environment, with no documented safety concerns specific to the structure itself.

Risk rating

How 1216-1218 Green 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
71stpercentile
