Rent & eviction protection

Is 208-210 Dorland 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 1910

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 1910
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-story multi-family residential building at 208-210 Dorland Street in Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights is a 3-unit flats and duplex structure built in 1910, currently owned by Bourret 2020 Living Trust. The property has undergone significant recent improvements, including comprehensive renovations between 2018-2019 involving kitchen and bathroom remodels, window replacements, and electrical upgrades. The renovation work, completed at a cost exceeding $100,000, included installing new appliances, lighting, plumbing fixtures, and electrical systems, though there was one reported incident in June 2018 regarding construction-related debris and a light fixture falling, which was subsequently marked as not active.

The building experienced several housing code violations in March 2015, including security issues with locks, floor covering problems, and a rodent infestation, though all these violations were abated by May 27, 2015. While there were also two fire complaints filed in March 2015 regarding blocked exits and an unspecified issue, both were determined to have "No Merit." The property's maintenance history shows attention to basic infrastructure, including a reroofing project completed in 2014 and rear stair repairs in 1985. Recent activity at the property has primarily involved parking-related issues outside the building, with multiple reports of illegal parking and sidewalk blocking documented between 2021 and 2024, though these incidents are external to the building's operations and maintenance.

Risk rating

How 208-210 Dorland 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
56thpercentile

Out of 1278 buildings in this neighborhood, 562 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 location

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Building age

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