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 1423-1425 Willard 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 1907
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 1907
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 3-unit multi-family residential building at 1423-1425 Willard St, owned by Prieur Family Trust 2001, is a 3-story flats and duplex structure built in 1907 in the Parnassus/Ashbury Heights neighborhood. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, including a complete reroofing in 2002 costing $13,300, and a kitchen remodel in 2005 for unit 1423 that involved lowering the hall ceiling (despite the building not being equipped with sprinklers in the middle unit) at a cost of $35,000. Historical records show earlier maintenance from 1984 when the wooden shingles were replaced.

Recent concerns regarding the property have primarily involved exterior issues, with multiple 311 calls in the past two years related to street maintenance, parking violations, and sidewalk conditions. Most notably, there have been recent reports of garbage and debris (December 2024), hazardous materials (January 2024), and a sidewalk defect (March 2023). The property has experienced recurring issues with illegal parking in the vicinity, with multiple incidents reported between 2021 and 2024. Historical housing inspections in 1999 and 2005 were conducted and subsequently abated, though no specific violation details were recorded. The most recent building-related permit activity was in 2015 for a street space and sidewalk permit valued at $1.00. A temporary moving sign request was submitted and is currently open, requesting a 30-foot zone from February 25 to 27, 2022.

Risk rating

How 1423-1425 Willard 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
42ndpercentile

Out of 526 buildings in this neighborhood, 305 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.

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.

Property class: multi-family flat

2–4 unit flats (class F) are a common SF building type with their own maintenance and complaint patterns.
