Rent & eviction protection

Is 1674-1678 Fulton 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 1900

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 1900
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 1674-1678 Fulton Street is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Yan Ningxiao & Jujare Srika. The building underwent significant interior remodeling in 2018 with a $110,000 renovation project converting storage spaces into living areas and bathrooms, followed by additional improvements in 2019 including kitchen and bathroom updates. Between 2019 and 2021, the property received various electrical, plumbing, and street space permits, with completed work including the installation of a new central furnace, shower pans, electrical sub-panels, and extensive electrical system upgrades.

The building's history includes some concerning incidents, particularly in 2020 when multiple complaints were filed regarding construction work being performed beyond permitted scope and in a dangerous manner, along with reports of construction debris accumulation. Earlier, in 2012, the property faced violations related to vacant building registration requirements, which were resolved within two months. Additionally, the property has experienced multiple recent street-level issues including reports of garbage, debris, and waste (most recently in 2024), though these pertain primarily to the street rather than the building itself. Planning records indicate past concerns about illegal short-term rentals between 2017-2018, with mentions of recent neighborhood complaints regarding rental activity in 2019, though these violations are noted as presumed abated. Notably, there was one recorded gas leak incident with no civilian injuries.

Risk rating

How 1674-1678 Fulton 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
70thpercentile

Out of 797 buildings in this neighborhood, 239 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
