1642 Hyde St

Nob Hill, SF 94109 0155037 6 units · 4 fl · 1909

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 1642 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 1909
2 or more units
6 units
Property type
Multi-Family Residential
Zoning

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 1909
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 1642 Hyde Street property in Nob Hill is a 4-story, 6-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1909, currently owned by Lawrence & Mary Jo Nejasmic. The building has undergone significant safety and modernization upgrades over the past two decades, with the most recent being a fire alarm system upgrade in March 2023 (cost: $28,342) to meet current safety codes. The building completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit (Tier 3) in 2015 (cost: $47,300), significantly improving seismic safety. Major improvements were made in 2007-2008, including comprehensive interior remodels of units 2, 4, and 6, installation of double-pane windows, and substantial electrical upgrades including a new 400-amp service and complete rewire of all units. The building has received regular maintenance attention, with completed fire alarm system installations and upgrades in 2006 and 2023.

The property has experienced three notable complaints or violations since 2003, all of which were promptly addressed. These included a 2005 complaint about construction-related issues such as low water pressure and window drafts (abated within one day), a 2006 complaint regarding unsafe work conditions with asbestos and scaffolding (abated within two weeks), and a routine inspection in 2008 that identified several safety and security compliance items including alarm system certification and exterior door locking devices (all abated by October 2008). The building's maintenance record shows regular attention to safety systems, with the fire alarm system being a recurring focus of upgrades and maintenance. Recent 311 calls from 2024 primarily relate to external issues like street cleaning and parking enforcement, with one call regarding a fallen tree that was resolved by city services. The building is currently in compliance with all major safety requirements, including having completed its soft-story retrofit program.

Risk rating

How 1642 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
65thpercentile

Out of 1125 buildings in this neighborhood, 394 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Number of units

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

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.
