Rent & eviction protection

Is 875 Fulton 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 1965

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 1965
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 875 Fulton Street in the Alamo Square neighborhood, owned by Geordie Frazer and Elizabeth Va, has undergone several notable maintenance and repair activities since its construction in 1965. Most recently, in 2023, significant repairs were made to the back stairs and a new 100-gallon water heater was installed, though the water heater replacement initially generated a complaint for being done without proper permitting, which was subsequently resolved. The building has a documented history of addressing various infrastructure and safety issues, including a complete house trap and fresh air vent replacement in 2015 following violations for leaks onto the public sidewalk, and multiple routine safety inspections revealing various maintenance needs such as window repairs, electrical issues, and interior surface concerns. Of particular note is a fire incident requiring repairs in 1993, and recurring maintenance of the building's systems, including a reroofing project in 2002 and ongoing attention to plumbing infrastructure. Recent building improvements also included repairs to mitigate pest issues, with records indicating ongoing attention to environmental health concerns within the units. The property has maintained active compliance with housing inspection requirements, though there have been periodic violations requiring remediation, typically resolved within reasonable timeframes. External to the building itself, there have been various 311 calls regarding street cleaning and public space maintenance, which are generally routine municipal service matters.

Risk rating

How 875 Fulton 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
