Rent & eviction protection

Is 1457-1467 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
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 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 6-unit multi-family residential building at 1457-1467 Fulton Street in Park North, constructed in 1900, has a notable history of maintenance and compliance issues, particularly regarding its soft-story status. The property has undergone significant improvements in recent years, including the installation of electric vehicle charging stations in 2021 and a $14,000 reroofing project in 2018. However, more concerning is the building's current active status as an unregistered soft-story structure, with complaints filed in December 2020 citing significant earthquake safety concerns. This follows a history of non-compliance dating back to 2017 when the owner failed to submit required seismic retrofit plans for the mandatory Soft Story Retrofit Program.

The building has experienced various maintenance and compliance challenges over the years, including multiple violations related to unauthorized construction work. A major violation in 2009 involved several unpermitted modifications, including a rear deck, fence height issues, window replacements, and concrete work, though these were eventually addressed. Between 2008-2016, the property underwent substantial plumbing work, including the installation of shower pans in all units, sewer line upgrades, and kitchen and bathroom remodeling. The building also faced safety concerns in 2010 when violations were issued regarding the lack of fire extinguishers and smoke detectors, though these have since been resolved. While many historical issues have been addressed, the outstanding soft-story compliance requirement remains a significant concern, with active complaints filed as recently as December 2020. The property has maintained active compliance through various repairs and improvements, including a recently filed exemption with the Rent Board in October 2024, though some recent 311 calls in 2024 indicate ongoing concerns with parking issues and debris management near the property.

Risk rating

How 1457-1467 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
26thpercentile

Out of 797 buildings in this neighborhood, 590 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
