1868 Vallejo St

Pacific Heights, SF 94123 0553014B 5 units · 3 fl · 1900

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 1868 Vallejo 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 1900
2 or more units
5 units
Property type
Multi-Family Residential
Zoning
RM1
Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

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 1900
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 5-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 1868 Vallejo Street in Pacific Heights, owned by Stan & Amy Hatfield Fmly Re, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1900. Most notably, the building completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2018 under San Francisco's earthquake safety requirements, which included the installation of new shearwalls and modifications to existing structures, with the work receiving final certification. Recent maintenance includes a substantial reroofing project completed in 2022 costing $18,000. The building has been subject to regular housing inspections, with routine inspections conducted in 1996, 2002, and 2011 showing no significant issues.

Recent activity around the property includes multiple reports of sidewalk cleaning needs in early 2024, with Recology responding to various cases of abandoned waste including electronics, mattresses, and other debris. There have also been two building-related complaints filed in 2024 - a public health request in December and a building inspection complaint in November, though specific details and outcomes of these cases are not provided in the available data. Fire department records indicate three incidents in the vicinity of the building, including a smoke detector activation, a person in distress, and an elevator rescue, none of which resulted in civilian injuries. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to infrastructure, with earlier improvements including aluminum window installation in 1988, deck replacement in 2006, and various roof maintenance work.

Risk rating

How 1868 Vallejo 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
56thpercentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 424 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.

Number of units

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

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.
