Rent & eviction protection

Is 900-910 Presidio 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 1960
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 1960
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 17-unit apartment building at 900-910 Presidio Ave in Lower Pacific Heights, owned by Gia Group Llc, was constructed in 1960 and is a 3-story multi-family residential building containing 17 units. The property has undergone significant renovations and improvements over the past decade, with recent work including a kitchen and bathroom renovation in Unit 8 scheduled for late 2024, following a pattern of unit upgrades between 2013-2021 that included similar renovations in Units 5, 3, 4, 6, and 7, all averaging around $20,000 in work. A notable addition was the legal conversion of a storage space into an accessory dwelling unit (ADU) in 2016, completed with proper permits.

The building has experienced various maintenance and safety issues over the years. Recent concerns include access control problems in 2022-2023 with the front gate and garage security, and a significant water leak complaint in 2020 that affected a disabled veteran's unit. Fire safety inspections between 2019-2022 revealed recurring issues with fire extinguishers and electrical systems, though these were generally corrected promptly. Historical violations from 2003, including problems with the fire escape and weatherproofing, were abated by 2004. The property has undergone some unauthorized modifications in the past, as evidenced by complaints in 2012 regarding unpermitted construction work, though these issues were subsequently addressed through proper legalization processes. Recent maintenance history shows active management response to building systems, with work occurring in all units to maintain and upgrade facilities.

Risk rating

How 900-910 Presidio 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
15thpercentile

Out of 670 buildings in this neighborhood, 570 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.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

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.
