Rent & eviction protection

Is 84-86 Ord 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 1964
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 four-story multi-family residential building at 84-86 Ord Street in Corona Heights, owned by Matthew Miller, was constructed in 1964 and contains two units. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with substantial work occurring between 2008-2014. Major renovations during this period included a 2008 forward addition above the existing garage, a two-story side addition, and interior remodeling ($415,000); a 2012 third-floor side addition, front balconies, and elevator installation ($110,000); and 2013 elevator installation, complete rewiring with 200 amp service, and new plumbing systems with radiant heating ($1 million+ estimated total). More recent maintenance work was performed in 2014, including removal of an in-ground hot tub and replacement of damaged decking.

The building has experienced typical urban location challenges, with several 311 calls recorded between 2019-2022 primarily related to street cleaning and waste issues. Of particular note was a flooding incident in April 2022 on the street near the property. Historical planning records show that the property sought to construct rear decks and stairs, with proposed modifications originally encroaching into the required rear yard, though these applications were ultimately withdrawn or settled under specific conditions. While the building has undergone substantial improvements and system upgrades, residents should be aware of the property's location history, including past tree-related property concerns and occasional street maintenance issues, though these appeared to be promptly addressed by city services.

Risk rating

How 84-86 Ord 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
79thpercentile

Out of 348 buildings in this neighborhood, 73 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.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Number of floors

Building height affects maintenance complexity and is one of the size signals the model uses.
