Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 2001-2003 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 1900

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.

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 2001-2003 Oak Street property is a three-story multi-family residential building located in the Haight-Ashbury neighborhood, containing 4 units and constructed in 1900. The building has undergone several significant safety and maintenance upgrades in recent years, with the most recent being the installation of new low frequency sounders in sleeping areas to comply with fire alarm system requirements, completed in September 2024 at a cost of $18,000. Other recent improvements include a substantial electrical upgrade in 2019 involving the installation of a new 60A subfeed and rewiring work on the third floor apartment, and kitchen renovations in Apartment A in 2019 which included cabinet and countertop replacements.

The building's history shows attention to maintenance and safety compliance, with several termite and structural repairs documented from the 1980s through the 1990s. Multiple violations and complaints were recorded between 2003 and 2010, primarily related to fire safety and security issues, including problematic egress obstruction and combustible storage concerns, all of which were officially abated by March 2003. A notable incident in 2015 involved a complaint about power being supplied to a homeless encampment, which was quickly resolved within days. The fire alarm system has experienced a few malfunction-related incidents, though no civilian injuries were reported. Recent 311 calls from late 2024 primarily relate to street maintenance issues such as illegal postings, graffiti, and garbage removal on public property, rather than building-specific concerns.

Risk rating

How 2001-2003 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
24thpercentile

Out of 581 buildings in this neighborhood, 442 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
