Rent & eviction protection

Is 760-762 Hayes 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 760-762 Hayes Street is a 2-story, 4-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Linda R Harrington Trust. The building has undergone significant renovations and faced multiple maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing concerns emerging in late 2024. There are active complaints regarding inadequate heating and insulation, with multiple tenants reporting extreme cold conditions and an allegedly non-functional carbon monoxide alarm. The building's maintenance history shows substantial work completed in 2014, including extensive electrical upgrades (200-amp service upgrade, rewiring of units, new fixtures) and plumbing improvements (new kitchens, bathrooms, water heaters), followed by more recent issues including mold remediation work in September 2024 that required restoration of bathroom subflooring and plumbing fixtures.

Historical records reveal various maintenance challenges, including a significant number of violations in 2003 related to fire safety and electrical systems, which were subsequently abated. More recently, there are concerns about illegal construction and permit violations, particularly regarding combined flat usage and unauthorized modifications. The building's plumbing and electrical systems have received considerable attention over the years, with multiple permits for upgrades and repairs, including recent bathroom fixture replacements in September 2024. The property has a documented history of foundation work (2008), reroofing (2003), and various unit renovations, though some permits have expired without completion verification. Of particular note is an outstanding issue regarding illegal short-term rentals at 760 Hayes Street, which has resulted in penalties that may affect future building permits and approvals. The building currently has three active housing complaints from 2024 regarding heating, insulation, and ventilation issues that appear to remain unresolved as of the latest records.

Risk rating

How 760-762 Hayes 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
33rdpercentile

Out of 1027 buildings in this neighborhood, 688 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.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

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

Building age

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