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 44 Prosper 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 1900
2 or more units

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

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 1900
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 multi-family residential building at 44 Prosper Street, containing 4 units and constructed in 1900, has undergone several significant maintenance and safety upgrades over the years. Most recently, in February 2022, the building successfully completed the replacement of six Federal Pacific sub-panels serving all units, addressing a critical electrical infrastructure update. The building has faced multiple fire safety compliance issues, particularly in 2002 when violations were recorded regarding combustible storage, egress obstructions, fire escape maintenance, and fire sprinkler requirements; however, all these violations were abated by October 15, 2002. A routine inspection in 2011 revealed additional concerns including the need for handrails, wall repairs, door security updates, and fire extinguisher maintenance, but these issues were also resolved by December 16, 2011.

The most recent building service history shows attention to basic infrastructure needs, with a street space permit issued in 2010. Currently, there are no active violations or complaints associated with the property. The area around the building has experienced recurring issues with street cleanliness, particularly in 2022-2024, with multiple reports of human waste and debris requiring municipal attention, though these are external to the building itself. Recent utility-related matters have been minimal, with only one water customer callback documented in November 2024. The building's recent maintenance history indicates proper attention to electrical infrastructure, while historical violations suggest past challenges with fire safety compliance that have been addressed through prompt resolution.

Risk rating

How 44 Prosper 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
29thpercentile

Out of 1278 buildings in this neighborhood, 907 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 age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.
