Rent & eviction protection

Is 1455-1459 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

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 1455-1459 Hayes Street in the Park North neighborhood, owned by Brittany S Hull Revocable Living Trust, has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects since its construction in 1900. Most recently, in late 2023, the building received approximately 150 square feet of siding replacement on the back of the house, and an electric vehicle charging circuit was installed in July 2024. Previous major work included a complete reroofing in 2017, replacement of the sewer main line and house trap in 2013, and repairs to two entry steps in 2007. The building experienced security-related violations in July 2010, requiring the installation of self-closing devices at exterior doors and deadlatch locks, though these were abated by September 2010. A routine safety inspection was conducted in 2017, and the building has undergone regular housing inspections throughout its history. The property has maintained active compliance with housing codes, with all identified violations being promptly addressed.

Parking continues to be a significant concern in the vicinity of the building, with multiple documented incidents of blocked driveways between 2022 and 2024, resulting in several citations being issued to violators. The area has also experienced periodic issues with street cleanliness, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls for general cleaning and waste removal between 2022 and 2023. While the building has had its share of routine complaints and maintenance needs over the years, recent records suggest regular upkeep and prompt response to violations, with no active safety concerns currently on file. The most recent building improvements indicate ongoing investment in property maintenance and modernization, including recent updates to security systems and sustainability features such as electric vehicle charging capability.

Risk rating

How 1455-1459 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
66thpercentile

Out of 797 buildings in this neighborhood, 271 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

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Building age

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

Property class: multi-family flat

2–4 unit flats (class F) are a common SF building type with their own maintenance and complaint patterns.
