Rent & eviction protection

Is 1314-1318 Hayes 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

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 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 three-unit multi-family residential building at 1314-1318 Hayes St, owned by Jtom Properties LLC, has undergone significant recent rehabilitation following a serious fire incident in January 2023 that rendered the building unsafe and uninhabitable, causing extensive damage to the roof, walls, and interior spaces. Between June 2023 and 2024, major repair work was conducted including the replacement of interior drywall, finishes, insulation, windows, electrical wiring, and plumbing fixtures, with building permits totaling over $450,000. Additional improvements were completed in 2024, including the installation of three central furnaces, new electrical sub-panels, and the addition of multiple bathrooms and plumbing fixtures throughout the building. Historical records show the building was constructed in 1900 as a flat and store, with previous maintenance issues including heating violations in 2001, illegal unit concerns, and various safety violations, though these have been addressed and marked as not active.

The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years including multiple roof replacements (2001, 2004), a water heater replacement in 2019, and various routine safety inspections. Recent maintenance concerns in 2024 included plumbing improvements, electrical system upgrades, and the resolution of multiple 311 calls regarding sidewalk conditions and debris removal. The building's compliance history shows resolution of major violations, though there remain some infrastructure challenges in the surrounding area as evidenced by recent 311 calls regarding sewage discharge and sidewalk defects. The comprehensive renovations completed since the 2023 fire incident demonstrate a substantial investment in restoring and improving the building's systems and living conditions.

Risk rating

How 1314-1318 Hayes 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
29thpercentile

Out of 797 buildings in this neighborhood, 566 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

DBI tenant complaints (past 7 years)

Formal complaints tenants filed with DBI about this building over 7 years.

Property class (F2)

The assessor's property-class code, which correlates with building type and the violation rates the model expects.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.
