Rent & eviction protection

Is 802-804 Fell 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 1910
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 1910
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 three-story, six-unit residential building at 802-804 Fell Street in San Francisco's Alamo Square neighborhood has experienced notable challenges in recent years, particularly during the 2025-2026 period. The property, constructed in 1910 and currently owned by John P Sucich & William E V, has accumulated a significant number of service requests - 135 in total over the past seven years. Most concerning are the recurring sanitation issues documented between 2025 and 2026, with multiple reports of human waste and garbage debris, including at least one case involving a discarded refrigerator appliance. These sanitation incidents, while generally resolved through appropriate interventions, suggest ongoing challenges with maintaining the property's immediate surroundings.

The building's safety record includes two documented fire incidents in the past seven years, with the most recent occurring in June 2022, involving outside rubbish, trash, or waste catch fire, though fortunately with no civilian injuries or fatalities. The Department of Building Inspection has received only one complaint regarding this property in the past seven years, which, given the high number of 311 calls, represents a relatively low ratio of formal complaints to service requests. The most recent 311 service request related to the property, opened in July 2026, concerns an encampment issue and remains open as of October 2023. While the property has experienced multiple incidents requiring municipal intervention, it's worth noting that most service requests have been resolved through appropriate channels, suggesting that response systems are functioning as intended, though they do indicate some recurring neighborhood challenges.

Risk rating

How 802-804 Fell 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
50thpercentile

Out of 305 buildings in this neighborhood, 152 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

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.
