Rent & eviction protection

Is 622-624 Haight 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.

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 1895
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 622-624 Haight Street is a two-story, multi-family residential building constructed in 1895, currently owned by 437 Duncan St LLC. The two-unit building has undergone significant improvements and safety upgrades over recent years, with the most substantial work occurring in 2021, including the installation of a new monitoring fire alarm system ($5,806), complete rewiring of the first floor unit with added laundry facilities, and bathroom renovations. Compliance with modern safety standards has been a focus, with the installation of fire sprinklers throughout the ADU unit in 2019 ($12,700), foundation upgrades in 2018, and various plumbing improvements including new shower installations and bathroom remodels.

The building has experienced several notable issues in its recent history, though many have been addressed through subsequent improvements. A complaint from 2017 reported multiple concerning conditions including unauthorized plumbing work and concerns about water heater installations, which appeared to have been addressed by the time of subsequent permits. The property has maintained active responses to infrastructure and system upgrades, evidenced by the recent 2024 work regarding tree root issues affecting the sidewalk, and multiple parking violations in the vicinity have been documented through 311 calls, particularly related to sidewalk parking. Recent complaints primarily relate to exterior maintenance matters, such as garbage management and graffiti, suggesting that the most critical internal safety and habitability issues have been largely resolved through the extensive renovation work carried out between 2018 and 2021.

Risk rating

How 622-624 Haight 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
95thpercentile

Out of 1027 buildings in this neighborhood, 51 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
