Rent & eviction protection

Is 69-75 Hill 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 1880

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 1880
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 property at 69-75 Hill Street is a 5-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1880, currently owned by Zoriall LLC. The building has a history of multiple permit and compliance issues, most notably a significant security incident in late 2021 when temporary insecure entryway doors were installed, reportedly at the request of the San Francisco Department of Building Inspection, leaving the building vulnerable until they were finally addressed. The building has been actively working to resolve its soft story retrofit non-compliance status (Tier 3), with permits filed in 2023 indicating a $120,000 retrofit project to comply with seismic safety requirements. Multiple building violations were issued in 2016, primarily related to fire safety requirements, all of which were abated by April 2016.

Substantial improvements were made to the building's units between 2015-2016, including kitchen and bathroom remodels, laundry installations, and electrical upgrades across all units, though some permits expired during this period. Planning records indicate ongoing efforts to address unpermitted work, including removal of an unpermitted rear roof deck and other modifications. In 2018-2019, the building faced several enforcement actions regarding expired permits and occupancy issues, though these have since been resolved. The property's most recent building permit activities, including a September 2023 permit to demolish an unpermitted deck and front entry door, suggest continued attention to code compliance matters. Despite these historical issues, recent permits indicate ongoing efforts to bring the building into full compliance with current codes and regulations, particularly regarding seismic safety requirements.

Risk rating

How 69-75 Hill 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
4thpercentile

Out of 1278 buildings in this neighborhood, 1227 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
