Rent & eviction protection

Is 1759-1771 Filbert 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 1912
2 or more units
7 units
Property type
Multi-Family Residential

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.

15+ years since occupancy
Built 1912
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, seven-unit apartment building at 1759-1771 Filbert Street in Cow Hollow, owned by Flora Oltranti Gst Exempt T, was constructed in 1912 and has undergone several significant improvements over the years. Most notably, the building completed its mandatory Tier 3 soft-story retrofit in 2017-2019, which included the installation of shear walls and related structural improvements totaling approximately $67,000. Recent renovations include a 2020 garage rewiring project and a Ufer ground installation, along with cancelled plans for a 2021 bathroom and kitchen remodel in one unit. The building has received multiple safety upgrades, including a complete window replacement on the front elevation in 2014 and reroofing work in 2012.

The property has experienced several maintenance issues over its history, with the most significant incidents occurring in 2005-2008. In 2005, the building faced multiple fire safety violations, including issues with combustible storage and smoke detector requirements, though these were abated by June 2005. A 2008 complaint revealed water damage from an upstairs unit, along with electrical concerns, which were addressed within two months. The building's fire safety record shows mainly false alarms and system malfunctions in recent years, with two minor unintentional fires recorded but no civilian injuries. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to sidewalk cleaning and parking enforcement, indicating typical urban maintenance issues. The most recent building inspection records show routine maintenance and compliance activities, with no active violations or complaints as of October 2023.

Risk rating

How 1759-1771 Filbert 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.
