Noe Valley, SF 94114 3628030 3 units · 2 fl · 1906

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 9-11 Vicksburg 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 1906
2 or more units

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 1906
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 9-11 Vicksburg St in Noe Valley is a 3-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1906, currently owned by Matthew & Hilda Hollis. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most recent work being filed in May 2023 for window replacement and minor dry rot repairs, affecting eight windows that are not visible from the street. A substantial renovation occurred in 2018, including a complete kitchen and bathroom remodel, electrical upgrades (subpanel, lighting, smoke detectors), and plumbing improvements, with a total investment of $18,000. The building has experienced some maintenance issues, notably with the sewer system, as evidenced by two sewage backup incidents in late 2021 (December and January), though these were resolved through field work by PUC Sewer Operations.

Historical records show various maintenance and improvement projects, including reroofing (1999), back stairs replacement (1998), and kitchen cabinet upgrades (1990). The building underwent a fire safety improvement in 2008 with the addition of a fire sprinkler system to an existing storage area. In January 2001, the property faced multiple housing code violations related to gas utility shutoff requirements and fire egress obstructions, though these were promptly addressed and abated by January 11, 2001. More recent inspections in 2011 and 2007 found no violations, indicating improved compliance with housing codes over time. The most recent street-related permits (2018) suggest continued attention to the building's exterior maintenance and compliance requirements.

Risk rating

How 9-11 Vicksburg 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
43rdpercentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 1071 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.

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.
