Rent & eviction protection

Is 7-9 Cyrus Pl 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 1965
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 7-9 Cyrus Place in Nob Hill, owned by Yee 1998 Trust, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1965. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, with particular attention to roofing maintenance. Most recently, in July 2024, a reroofing project was completed at a cost of $9,700, following a previously issued (but perhaps delayed) roofing permit from October 2022. Other notable improvements in 2014 included the replacement of two front windows with energy-efficient aluminum windows, the installation of composite siding on visible exterior walls, and the replacement of dry-rotted framing members at the rear of the building.

The building's history shows regular maintenance attention, particularly focusing on exterior upkeep and structural integrity. The property has experienced some infrastructure issues, including a sewage backup incident in September 2013 that was promptly addressed by PUC Sewer Operations. A single fire incident was recorded as a false alarm or call with no civilian injuries. While there were multiple parking enforcement issues reported in December 2021, these appear to be unrelated to the building's operation or condition. The most recent documented maintenance work shows ongoing commitment to property upkeep, with the July 2024 reroofing project indicating proactive maintenance of building systems.

Risk rating

How 7-9 Cyrus Pl'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
92ndpercentile

Out of 1125 buildings in this neighborhood, 90 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Neighborhood location
