Rent & eviction protection

Is 901 North Point 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 before 1979
Built 1906
2 or more units

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

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

901 North Point Street is a two-unit multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Russian Hill neighborhood, constructed in 1906 and currently owned by Frances Jane Stavropoulos L. The property has undergone several significant modifications and experienced some notable incidents over its history, most recently in 2022 with the installation of a power door operator for barrier removal, a project that commenced work under a previously approved permit from 2018. The building suffered fire damage in 2006 due to an incident involving a BBQ on the roof, which affected an upstairs bedroom and required repairs to the ceiling, though most damage was attributed to water. A controversial incident occurred in 2008 when a roof deck was constructed without proper permits, leading to multiple Notices of Violation and an abatement process that was finally resolved in September 2010.

More recent complaints from August 2024 indicate ongoing concerns with construction noise starting before 7 am, which remains an active issue. The property has maintained its infrastructure through various improvements, including a reroofing project in 2007 and plumbing upgrades in 2012 involving the replacement of drains for various sinks. Recent 311 calls from late 2024 show typical urban issues around the property, including sidewalk conditions, blocked parking, and some cleanliness concerns, though these appear to be external to the building itself. A smoke detector malfunction incident was recorded but resulted in no civilian injuries. The building's recent history shows regular maintenance and compliance with most regulations, though the construction noise issue may be affecting current resident comfort.

Risk rating

How 901 North Point 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
81stpercentile

Out of 1133 buildings in this neighborhood, 215 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
