Rent & eviction protection

Is 1082-1086 Jackson 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.

Built 1908
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 4-unit multi-family residential building at 1082-1086 Jackson Street in Nob Hill is a 3-story flats & duplex structure built in 1908 and currently owned by the Ng Kee Fung Revocable Trust. Recent significant building work includes a 2022 kitchen and bathroom remodel, window replacements, and vinyl flooring updates costing $30,000, though there is currently an active complaint from June 2022 regarding unpermitted basement work. The building underwent a complete reroofing in 2017 ($15,000) and electrical system upgrade in 2005 with the installation of circuit breakers. Historical records show several building code compliance efforts, including insulation installation in 1986 and a major code compliance project.

The property has experienced multiple safety and maintenance issues over its history, with the most concerning period being in 2000-2002 when numerous violations were documented, including problems with fire safety systems, egress obstructions, garbage storage, fire proofing, and roof deck condition. These violations were all officially abated by July 2002. A routine housing inspection in 2008 noted concerns about mold, dry rot, electrical stability, and window issues. Recent years have shown the building is maintained regularly, with three significant building permits in the past decade. The surrounding area has experienced various street cleaning issues as documented in 311 calls, primarily related to abandoned furniture and general debris, with several reports between 2018 and 2025, though these are not directly related to building conditions.

Risk rating

How 1082-1086 Jackson 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
58thpercentile
