Rent & eviction protection

Is 628-632 Hyde 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 1907

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 1907
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 three-story, 7-unit multi-family residential building at 628-632 Hyde Street, constructed in 1907, has undergone several significant improvements and faced various maintenance challenges over the years. Most recently, in 2024, there was a complaint regarding unauthorized construction activity occurring before 7 AM, which was resolved by September 2024. The building experienced heating system issues in early 2017, leading to multiple housing violations related to inadequate permanent heating sources, though these were abated by March 2017 through the replacement of gas heaters and removal of portable heaters. The property has received important safety upgrades over its history, including a seismic retrofit in 1994 (cost: $60,100), fire escape replacement in 2000 (cost: $15,000), and fire protection improvements in 2006 (cost: $8,000) that included adding gypsum board for fire protection and electrical upgrades in the basement. Earlier improvements included the installation of aluminum windows in 1990, parapet bracing work in 1986, and retaining wall reconstruction in 2000.

The building has a documented history of some maintenance issues and quality-of-life concerns, including three noise complaints regarding amplified sound/electronics between 2014-2016, two instances of graffiti (2010 and an older case), and a general street cleaning issue in 2021. The property management has generally addressed violations and complaints in a timely manner, with most construction and maintenance work approved through proper permits. The most significant recent maintenance-related event was the 2017 heating system violations, which prompted both plumbing and electrical permits for system modifications totaling approximately $5,000. While the building has experienced periodic maintenance challenges, particularly related to heating systems and occasional quality-of-life issues, it has also received substantial investment in safety improvements and infrastructure upgrades over the past several decades.

Risk rating

How 628-632 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
77thpercentile

Out of 448 buildings in this neighborhood, 103 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.

Building size

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

Number of units

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

Construction type (C)

The building's construction type on file, which affects its maintenance risk profile.
