Rent & eviction protection

Is 921-923 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 1900
2 or more units

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 property at 921-923 Fulton Street in the Alamo Square neighborhood is a 2-story, multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, containing 3 units and currently owned by Pavlina Ecclesiarchou. The building has undergone several significant renovations, most notably in 2012 when major improvements were made to units 921 and 923, including kitchen remodels with new cabinets, electrical upgrades, and plumbing work involving new fixtures and gas shut-off valves, along with the removal of an abandoned brick flue. A sewer lateral replacement was completed in February 2022, replacing the line from the building structure to the sidewalk curb. The building has a history of routine safety inspections by Housing Inspection Services, with notable findings in 2007, 2010, and 2018, including issues with handrails and fire extinguishers, though all violations were subsequently resolved.

Recent developments at the property have primarily involved external maintenance issues, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding garbage and debris removal, including reports of discarded furniture, liquid spills, and general cleaning needs. The building's maintenance history shows regular updates to keep the units modernized, with past work including installation of direct vent gas heaters in 2007 and bathroom remodeling. While the property has experienced occasional maintenance issues as evidenced by 311 calls, there are no active violations or pending compliance issues on record as of October 2023. The most recent building-related activities have focused on exterior maintenance and street-related concerns, rather than internal structural or safety issues.

Risk rating

How 921-923 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
61stpercentile

Out of 305 buildings in this neighborhood, 119 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.

Building age

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Property class: multi-family flat

2–4 unit flats (class F) are a common SF building type with their own maintenance and complaint patterns.

Moderate failure risk 28%
