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 862-868 Shrader 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.

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 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 862-868 Shrader St is a multi-family residential building located in the Parnassus/Ashbury Heights neighborhood, consisting of 4 units across 3 stories. Built in 1906 and currently owned by the Jordan Family Living Trust, this apartment building has undergone several significant improvements, with the most recent being a complete reroofing project in 2021 costing $20,655. A major renovation project occurred between 2007-2008, which included extensive plumbing work such as sewer line replacements, the installation of new furnaces, shower pans, and six fireplaces, as well as comprehensive electrical upgrades involving the installation of lighting, switches, receptacles, and electrical panels. The building has had three routine housing inspections (1998, 2007, and 2010), with one current active complaint filed in 2010 that remains unresolved as of October 2023.

The property has experienced recurring issues with street cleanliness, particularly recently, with multiple garbage and debris reports filed in 2024 (September through December), totaling at least nine separate incidents. These cases typically involved bagged garbage, debris, and other waste materials on or near the property. Additionally, there were two reports of driveway blocking on December 15, 2024, with one incident being validated by an officer response. While the building's major systems have received necessary updates through the permits and improvements made between 2007-2008, including plumbing, electrical, and HVAC systems, the persistent street cleaning issues and one unresolved housing inspection complaint warrant attention, though direct correlation to resident experience is not established through the available data.

Risk rating

How 862-868 Shrader 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
22ndpercentile

Out of 526 buildings in this neighborhood, 410 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

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.
