Rent & eviction protection

Is 612-614 Fillmore 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 1906
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.

Built 1906
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 612-614 Fillmore Street building is a three-story, multi-family residential structure located in Alamo Square, containing two units and constructed in 1906. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most substantial renovation occurring in 2005-2006, which included a $55,000 electrical upgrade across all floors, kitchen and bathroom remodeling on the ground floor, and window replacements due to dry rot on the rear facade. More recent improvements include the installation of a pre-fabricated metal spiral staircase in 2008, providing access from the ground-level garden to the second-floor deck, for which both structural calculations and installation permits were obtained.

The building has experienced recurring fire safety issues, with violations and complaints documented between 2016 and 2023 related to alarm systems, sprinkler/standpipe systems, extinguishers, and sleeping area requirements. Most recently, in November 2023, a sleeping area requirement violation was issued but was subsequently noted as rescinded. The property has also faced challenges with graffiti, particularly during 2023, when multiple incidents were reported. Fire incident records show multiple alarm system activations, mostly due to malfunctions or unintentional triggers, though there have been no reported civilian injuries from these incidents. The building's maintenance history shows responsiveness to violations, with most being promptly corrected or abated, including a cluster of fire safety violations in April 2018 related to sprinklers, alarms, and extinguishers. Recent 311 calls (2023-2024) primarily involve external issues such as graffiti, encampment reports, and parking enforcement matters, rather than internal building concerns.

Risk rating

How 612-614 Fillmore 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
76thpercentile

Out of 305 buildings in this neighborhood, 73 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
