Inner Mission, SF 94103 3532058 4 units · 2 fl · 1909

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 71-73 Woodward 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 1909

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 1909
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 two-story, four-unit TIC building at 71-73 Woodward Street in the Inner Mission, owned by Benjamin A Fadaeinejad & So, was constructed in 1909 and has undergone several significant renovations over its lifetime. The most recent major work was completed in September 2018, involving the installation of recessed lighting throughout the building, while in 2005-2006, a substantial renovation project valued at $120,000 was undertaken, including a complete electrical rewiring of all units, bathroom remodels, and smoke detector installations. Historical maintenance issues were addressed during a comprehensive renovation period, including roofing work in 2007.

The building has experienced multiple inspections and documented complaints over the years, with the most concerning period being 2003-2005, when various violations were recorded relating to unit safety, including issues with smoke detectors, illegal partitions, bathroom repairs, and security concerns. These violations were all officially abated by December 2005. More recent inspections in 2011-2012 noted general housing conditions, but there have been no active violations in over a decade. The property has had two fire-related incidents on record - a smoke scare and a building fire (details of which are not fully documented). Recent years have primarily seen issues related to exterior conditions and parking violations outside the building, with multiple 311 calls regarding sidewalk parking and debris between 2021-2024. These external enforcement issues, while persistent, do not directly impact the building's internal conditions or resident safety.

Risk rating

How 71-73 Woodward 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
38thpercentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 1476 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.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

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

Neighborhood location

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