Rent & eviction protection

Is 1750 Mcallister 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 1974

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.

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 12-story multi-family residential building at 1750 McAllister Street was constructed in 1974 and currently contains 97 units. The property has experienced several significant issues in recent years, particularly regarding its heating system. Most notably, in February 2023, there were multiple complaints about inadequate heat in occupied units, with residents reporting temperatures falling below the required 70 degrees F. The building has also faced recurring fire safety concerns, with several violations noted between 2016 and 2024, including three fire code violations in 2023 alone, with one violation related to sleeping area requirements still listed as open. The fire safety system has undergone multiple upgrades and modifications, with the most recent work completed in January 2024 to ensure compliance with NFPA 72-2022 audibility requirements.

The building has a documented history of plumbing and heating system challenges, including several boiler permit issues in 2016 that prompted multiple complaints, and flooding incidents reported in 2016 affecting unit flooring. Recent maintenance work has included the replacement of water heaters (2018) and various fire alarm system upgrades (2018-2024). In terms of general upkeep, complaints have been filed regarding various issues including garbage and debris (most recently in 2024), tree maintenance, and noise. The property underwent significant renovations in the past, including a ground floor expansion and various system upgrades, and was involved in a 100% affordable housing project proposal that requested variances for rear yard set-back and open space requirements.

Risk rating

How 1750 Mcallister 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

Grade A–B — Low risk

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
3th percentile

Out of 797 buildings in this neighborhood, 773 are predicted to be safer.

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.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 19.2%
Moderate concern 63.9%
Severe concern 16.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
