Rent & eviction protection

Is 1801 Greenwich 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 1958

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 8-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1801 Greenwich Street, owned by the Deluca Family Trust, was constructed in 1958 and has undergone several significant modifications and improvements over the years. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 (as a Tier 3 building) at a cost of $75,000, which included the installation of steel moment frames, new plyshear walls, and foundation improvements, earning a Certificate of Final Completion. Recent building upgrades include a 2018 kitchen renovation in unit #202 ($14,000) involving new cabinets, electrical work, and plumbing fixtures, as well as electrical system improvements including door installations in 2019. The building has experienced recurring issues with fire safety systems, with violations recorded in 2007 and 2010 related to fire escape ladders, alarm systems, and fire extinguishers, though these were subsequently addressed. A significant complaint was filed in 2018 regarding dry rot, structural hazards, mold, electrical issues, and concerns about the carport area, though this complaint is listed as not active.

The property has undergone regular maintenance and improvements, including three street space permits in 2018 and 2019, and in 1986, there were compliance work orders issued totaling $4,200. Two minor fire incidents were recorded, one involving smoke detector activation and another classified as a building fire due to equipment failure, though no civilian injuries were reported in either case. Recent 311 calls from 2023-2024 primarily concern parking enforcement issues, including multiple reports of driveway blocking, and there have been some instances of graffiti and garbage/debris concerns in the surrounding area. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues over its history, many have been promptly addressed through permits and repairs, and the recent completion of the soft-story retrofit demonstrates compliance with important safety requirements.

Risk rating

How 1801 Greenwich 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
33rdpercentile

Out of 861 buildings in this neighborhood, 577 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
