Rent & eviction protection

Is 1769-1773 Oak 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 1904
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 1904
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 1769-1773 Oak Street in Haight Ashbury, constructed in 1904, has undergone several significant maintenance and repair projects over the past two decades. Most recently, in 2021, work was completed on the front staircase, rear wooden deck, and window replacements across all floors, costing $20,000. The building has faced recurring maintenance issues, particularly with exterior structures: similar deck and staircase repairs were performed in 2016 ($7,000), 2007 ($15,000), and as far back as 1984, indicating ongoing challenges with these critical components. A notable cluster of building violations was recorded in September 2007, related to fire safety, stair conditions, and security requirements, though all these violations were abated by February 2008 through the aforementioned repairs.

Additional infrastructure improvements include a complete main sewer line replacement in 2010 and completion of the underground conversion project in 2004. The building has experienced two false alarm incidents, though with no associated injuries or fires. More recently, between September 2024 and November 2024, there have been multiple reports of driveway blocking, though these are unrelated to building conditions. The property has maintained compliance with all building codes since 2008, suggesting improved maintenance practices, though the recurring nature of staircase and deck repairs indicates these remain ongoing maintenance challenges.

Risk rating

How 1769-1773 Oak 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
74thpercentile

Out of 581 buildings in this neighborhood, 151 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 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.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.
