Rent & eviction protection

Is 1622-1624 Waller 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 1906
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 1906
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 property at 1622-1624 Waller Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Haight Ashbury neighborhood. Built in 1906, this flats and duplex building is currently owned by the Susan J Johnston Family Trust. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the past few decades, with the most recent major work being completed in 2020, when eleven street-facing windows were replaced with insulated glass Marvin wood clad double hung inserts at a cost of $11,000. Prior to that, in 2019, the building received a complete reroofing ($70,100), and in 2013, the sewer system was upgraded using a trenchless method.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural integrity and infrastructure upgrades, though there was one notable safety concern in 2017 regarding a compromised fence at the property line with 651 Cole Street, which was resolved within the year. More recent infrastructure issues include an open case from March 2024 regarding a damaged side sewer vent cover, while multiple 311 calls in 2024 and 2023 have been primarily related to street cleaning and tree maintenance outside the building. The property's maintenance record includes regular upkeep of exterior elements, though some recent 311 calls suggest ongoing issues with street cleaning in the immediate vicinity. While the building has experienced various maintenance and infrastructure projects over the years, there have been no recent building violations or safety concerns reported through official channels.

Risk rating

How 1622-1624 Waller 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
90thpercentile

Out of 581 buildings in this neighborhood, 58 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Neighborhood location

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