Rent & eviction protection

Is 1061-1063 Pacific Ave 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 1912
2 or more units

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 1912
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-family residential building at 1061-1063 Pacific Avenue in Nob Hill, owned by City Developers Corp, has a complex history since its construction in 1912. Most notably, the building underwent several unauthorized conversions between 2007 and 2014, when attempts were made to combine its two units into one, leading to multiple violations and enforcement actions. These violations were eventually corrected in 2007 through the reinstallation of a dividing wall at the first floor stairway, at a cost of $14,500, which restored the building's legal two-unit configuration. The property underwent significant improvements in 2004, including bathroom and kitchen remodels, voluntary seismic enhancements, and window replacements costing over $43,000, along with comprehensive electrical work. More recently, in 2017, there was a complaint about an unpermitted roof deck, which was subsequently constructed with a $20,000 permit.

The building has experienced various maintenance and safety issues over the years, including multiple sewer backup incidents in 2017, a significant safety concern. Recent 311 calls from 2020-2023 indicate ongoing issues with street cleanliness, parking enforcement, and occasional noise complaints. There were also concerning health and safety incidents reported in 2018, including hazardous materials and medical waste on the street near the property. The building's history includes one notable incident involving illegal short-term rentals, which was investigated and abated, with the property owner instructed to cease such activities. Planning records indicate that while the building has undergone various improvements and modifications, it has also faced scrutiny for maintaining compliance with housing regulations.

Risk rating

How 1061-1063 Pacific Ave'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
95thpercentile

Out of 1125 buildings in this neighborhood, 56 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
