Financial District North, SF 94133 0194034 7 units · 2 fl · 1906

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 603-609 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.

Built 1906

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 1906
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-story building at 603-609 Jackson Street, located in San Francisco's Financial District North, is a 7-unit property constructed in 1906 and currently owned by KR & AJ LLC. The building has experienced significant maintenance and operational issues over the past seven years, with a notably high volume of 338 311 service requests filed between 2016 and 2023. The majority of these complaints (35) were related to garbage and debris, including multiple instances of loose garbage and yard waste reported in late 2025, and three other garbage-related complaints in 2026. Other reported issues included a damaged side sewer vent cover in October 2025, and a public health complaint regarding tobacco in January 2025 that was subsequently transferred to the Tobacco program.

The building's permit history shows limited activity, with only two permits filed in the past seven years - a significant one in 2023 for an interior remodel to convert part of the building into a boba drink shop (which was withdrawn), and a more recent permit filed in April 2025 to legalize an awning for Yummy Bakery & Cake. Notably, the 2023 permit application mentioned that the building does not have an existing fire sprinkler system, which could be a potential safety concern. The building's documented history suggests ongoing challenges with waste management and maintenance, particularly in relation to garbage disposal, though the most recent service requests have been addressed promptly with no required work.

Risk rating

How 603-609 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
63rdpercentile

Out of 145 buildings in this neighborhood, 54 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
