Rent & eviction protection

Is 1785-1787 Green 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 1955

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 1955
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 two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 1785-1787 Green Street in Pacific Heights was built in 1955 and has undergone several significant maintenance and repair projects over the past decades. Most recently, in 2018, dry rot damage was repaired at the first living level's northwest corner, which had affected approximately 10 square feet of the building ($3,500). A potentially concerning event occurred in October 2020 when a complaint was filed regarding unauthorized tent structures with metal frames and tarps on the roof and deck, with suspicions of bed and breakfast operations without proper permits. Prior maintenance history includes asbestos removal from linoleum in the kitchen of unit #1787 in 2016, walkway repairs in 2006 (though records indicate this permit expired), reroofing in 1999, installation of stainless steel liners in 1995, and the addition of three louvered vents in 1988.

The property has experienced various infrastructure and service-related incidents in the vicinity, as documented in 311 calls throughout 2022-2024. These include multiple street cleaning requests, Christmas tree removal, graffiti reports, and several parking enforcement issues. The building's immediate area has seen recurring concerns with illegal parking and sidewalk maintenance, though these exterior issues appear to be handled promptly by the respective city departments. While the building itself has maintained a relatively stable repair history, with no urgent safety concerns or recent major structural problems, the surrounding area has experienced typical urban maintenance challenges that have been appropriately addressed by city services.

Risk rating

How 1785-1787 Green 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
65thpercentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 337 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
