Rent & eviction protection

Is 14-16 Dolores Ter 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 1911
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 2-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 14-16 Dolores Terrace, owned by the Matthew Hendley Revocable Living Trust, is a well-maintained property dating back to 1911. The most significant recent improvement was completed in May 2023, involving the professional replacement of five street-facing windows with energy-efficient wood/aluminum clad units at a cost of $15,000. This followed previous window maintenance work, including a $6,000 replacement of rotted backyard windows in 2003 and an earlier, now-expired window replacement permit from 1997. The building's exterior and surrounding area have experienced typical urban maintenance issues over the past decade, including three street cleaning requests in 2017, reports of improper illegal postings in 2021, and two sidewalk parking violations in 2018 and 2024, though most of these issues were promptly resolved by city services. The only notable infrastructure concern was a pavement defect reported in March 2016, which was addressed through temporary cutback and subsequent restoration work. A street light outage reported in January 2014 was resolved within a week. The property has maintained an active maintenance record, with all recent permits marked as complete and no outstanding violations on file.

Risk rating

How 14-16 Dolores Ter'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
86thpercentile

Out of 799 buildings in this neighborhood, 112 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.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

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

Building age

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.
