Rent & eviction protection

Is 1181-1199 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.

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 1906
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 11-unit, three-story building at 1181-1199 Green Street in San Francisco's Russian Hill neighborhood, built in 1906 and currently owned by Hyde-green LLC, has experienced several significant issues recently that may impact resident safety and comfort. In August 2024, multiple violations were recorded relating to safety requirements, including overdue smoke/carbon monoxide alarm inspections, fire extinguisher maintenance needs, and an exterior components structural inspection affidavit requirement, prompting the property's designation as a nuisance under San Francisco Housing Code Section 1001-d. More recently, in February 2025, there was a concerning report of a rodent infestation in unit 1185, with the resident reporting multiple dead mice in traps and expressing concerns about potential entry points behind the water heater and through rolling doors. Previous maintenance issues have also been documented, including a 2021 incident involving water intrusion during rain that affected a rear bonus room near an electrical outlet.

The building's maintenance history shows both regular upkeep and some pressing concerns. Between 2019 and 2026, several significant repairs and improvements were completed, including re-roofing work, exterior stairs repairs, and ground floor tenant improvements for accessible services. The property has generated numerous 311 service requests over the past seven years, with the most recent being multiple reports of garbage and debris issues in 2026, though these were resolved. Three Department of Building Inspection complaints were filed in this period, along with five Notices of Violation and four building permits, with a total recorded permit construction cost of $355,600. The clustering of violations and maintenance issues, particularly those related to safety systems and pest control, suggests ongoing management challenges that affect basic habitability standards.

Risk rating

How 1181-1199 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

Grade A–B — Low risk

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 1133 buildings in this neighborhood, 1031 are predicted to be safer.
