Rent & eviction protection

Is 575 Eddy 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.

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 49-unit, 6-story multi-family residential building at 575 Eddy Street in the Tenderloin neighborhood has a long history of maintenance and safety concerns, with records dating back to 1992 and continuing through 2023. Most notably, there are recent and ongoing fire safety issues: as of December 2023, there is an open violation regarding sleeping area requirements, following a pattern of fire safety concerns including violations for alarm systems (2019), multiple fire code violations (2017), and sprinkler maintenance issues (2017). The building underwent significant work in 2005, including attempted comprehensive upgrades to the elevator, fire alarm system, sprinkler coverage, electrical systems, and creation of accessible units, though many permits from that period were ultimately cancelled. The elevator system has been a recurring point of contention, with multiple tenant complaints between 1999 and 2011 about outages and malfunctions, including one instance in 2011 where it was out for four days, affecting residents requiring elevator access. A series of violations were recorded in 2011 regarding various building systems and maintenance issues, including egress obstruction, fire alarm system certification, hot water heater seismic bracing, exterior painting, security requirements, and weather-proofing repairs, though these were all abated by March 2015.

More recent history shows continued challenges with building systems and maintenance, including fire alarm system work in 2020 valued at over $35,000 and various repair permits. The property has experienced recurring issues with building cleanliness and security, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding street cleaning and maintenance issues near the building. While some improvements have been made, as indicated by completed permits for various systems upgrades, the building's maintenance history shows a pattern of recurring issues rather than permanent resolutions, particularly regarding elevator reliability and fire safety systems.

Risk rating

How 575 Eddy 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
20thpercentile

Out of 172 buildings in this neighborhood, 138 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
