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.

15+ years since occupancy
Built 1980
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
May be covered by AB 1482. The building is old enough for the statewide rent cap (5% + regional CPI, capped at 10% per year) and just-cause protection after 12 months of tenancy.

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

Located in San Francisco's Nob Hill neighborhood, 1215 Hyde Street is a three-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1980, containing 5 units and classified as Flats 5 to 14 units. The building's maintenance history shows several significant infrastructure upgrades from the late 1990s, including a vertical addition (1999) and reroofing work (1998), though these permits have since expired.

The property has undergone routine housing inspections by Housing Inspection Services in 1999 and 2009, with no outstanding issues noted on record. There have been multiple 311 calls in recent years, primarily concerning external matters such as human or animal waste on nearby sidewalks (2019, 2021), a blocked driveway (2020), and two sidewalk-related concerns in 2016 regarding a missing sewer vent cover and a collapsed sidewalk, though inspection revealed these conditions had already been addressed. A fire alarm system was inspected in June 2017 with no merit found for the complaint, and there was one CO detector activation incident recorded, attributed to malfunction with no civilian injuries reported. The documented history suggests the building has been actively maintained, with most issues being promptly resolved, particularly those relating to external environments rather than the building structure itself.

Risk rating

How 1215 Hyde 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
97thpercentile

Out of 1125 buildings in this neighborhood, 34 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

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