Rent & eviction protection

Is 158 Shrader 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 1908
2 or more units
4 units
Property type
Multi-Family Residential

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

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

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 1908
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

158 Shrader Street is a 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1908 in the Park North neighborhood, currently owned by Peter Bresciani. The property has undergone several significant structural and safety improvements in recent years, including a completed soft-story retrofit in 2017 (Tier 3) to enhance seismic safety, a roof replacement in 2022, and the current upgrade of the fire alarm system to comply with 2022 fire code requirements, with associated electrical permits issued in December 2023. The building has received various system upgrades, including furnace and heater replacement in 2019.

Historical records from 2005-2009 show multiple concerning incidents that have since been addressed, including foundation concerns, electrical safety issues, and pest/maintenance problems. There was a cluster of violations related to smoke detectors and emergency exits in 2005, followed by foundation concerns in 2006, and reports of mold and rodent issues in 2007. More recent complaints include an electrical wiring hazard reported in February 2022, which remains active as of the latest records. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep including multiple reroofing projects and repairs to various structural elements. Recent 311 calls from late 2024 indicate persistent issues with overflowing city garbage bins near the property, though these are not directly related to the building's condition. The property has also had three fire-related incidents recorded, consisting of false alarms and one carbon monoxide detector activation, with no civilian injuries reported in any incident.

Risk rating

How 158 Shrader 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
37thpercentile

Out of 797 buildings in this neighborhood, 502 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)
