Jordan Park/Laurel Heights, SF 94118 1066050 24 units · 3 fl · 1955

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years, but our model still flags a rising risk of maintenance problems in the next 12 months. That forecast comes from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area, not from this building's own record — treat it as a reason to ask questions, not as evidence of a problem. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

The bar and the rating point different ways because they measure different things: the bar counts DBI violations already on file, the rating forecasts the next 12 months.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 435 Euclid Ave 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 1955
2 or more units

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

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 1955
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 24-unit apartment building at 435 Euclid Ave, owned by the Bernard Family Trust, is a three-story multi-family residential structure built in 1955 that has undergone several significant improvements and faced various maintenance challenges over its history. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2016 (Tier 2) at a cost of $260,000, demonstrating compliance with seismic safety requirements. A recent fire violation was issued in November 2023 regarding sleeping area requirements, which is currently open. The property has experienced multiple renovation projects, including a significant $30,000 unit #8 renovation in 2020-2021 involving kitchen and bathroom updates, while planning records indicate a proposed addition of 6 ADUs at the ground floor.

The building has had several routine inspections and violations over the years, with a major cluster of issues identified in 2008, including water damage, fire safety concerns, and building maintenance items, all of which were abated by 2014. Recent maintenance activities include handling various plumbing and electrical updates, such as a gas line test in 2015 and the installation of battery-powered exit/egress lights in 2006. The building's support systems have been regularly maintained, though there was a period of concern regarding boiler permits in 2013 that was subsequently resolved. The property has experienced typical urban challenges as evidenced by 311 calls, including sidewalk access issues, parking concerns, and occasional flooding, most recently recorded in December 2023. While the building has had several false fire alarms and assistance calls recorded, these incidents did not result in injuries or major safety concerns.

Risk rating

How 435 Euclid Ave'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
10thpercentile

Out of 272 buildings in this neighborhood, 245 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.

Building size

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

Property class (A15)

The assessor's property-class code, which correlates with building type and the violation rates the model expects.
