Rent & eviction protection

Is 6-8 Keyes Aly 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 1916
2 or more units

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

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 1916
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 property at 6-8 Keyes Alley is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in Nob Hill, constructed in 1916 and currently owned by the Wall Family Trust. The building has undergone several significant renovations over the past two decades, with the most substantial work occurring in 2017 when one unit received a comprehensive kitchen remodel including appliance upgrades, sink and stove relocation, and electrical rewiring to code standards at a cost of $15,000. This project also involved significant electrical improvements including new lighting, circuits, and safety features such as smoke detectors. In 2010, the building addressed compliance issues by removing an unauthorized roof deck, which had been the subject of multiple notices of violation between 2008-2010 regarding safety code violations related to its construction without proper permits.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to essential infrastructure, including the installation of new meters for both units in 2009, a rooftop replacement in 1994, and a new 200-amp service installation with sub-meters in 2012. While there have been some quality of life issues reported through 311 calls, including concerns about litter receptacle management and street cleaning, these were generally resolved through standard city processes. A 2014 environmental health complaint and a 2012 report of peeling paint were both addressed through city channels, with the paint issue being found invalid as inspectors could not locate the address. The building's recent history suggests active management of major systems and compliance issues, though prospective residents should note the property's location and age may require ongoing maintenance vigilance.

Risk rating

How 6-8 Keyes Aly'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
89thpercentile

Out of 1125 buildings in this neighborhood, 124 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.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Building age

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

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.
