Rent & eviction protection

Is 567-575 Valencia 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.

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 567-575 Valencia Street property is a 9-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1907, currently owned by 571 Valencia Apts LLC. The building has undergone several significant improvements and faced various challenges over the past decades. Most notably, in 2018, the building completed mandatory soft-story seismic retrofits (Tier 4), demonstrating compliance with San Francisco's structural safety requirements. The building experienced a fire incident in 2010 that affected units 3 and 4, requiring repair work to the rear wall siding, windows, and drywall, which was completed under multiple permits totaling approximately $30,000.

Recent records from 2023-2024 show persistent safety concerns, particularly regarding fire safety systems. Multiple fire safety violations have been issued and subsequently abated, including issues with blocked exits, sprinkler/standpipe systems, alarm systems, and street numbering. The building's security and safety systems have undergone various updates, including mechanical and electrical improvements in 2019, installation of a new furnace, and electrical panel upgrades. Historical complaint records indicate recurring maintenance issues, including heating problems, water damage, and security concerns, though most violations from 2016 were addressed by December of that year.

Risk rating

How 567-575 Valencia 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

Grade A–B — Low risk

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.
