925 Dolores St

Noe Valley, SF 94110 3631029 3 units · 2 fl · 1907

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 925 Dolores 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.

15+ years since occupancy
Built 1907
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 925 Dolores Street is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building located in Noe Valley, owned by the Katherine Stein Trust and constructed in 1907. The building has undergone several significant safety and infrastructure upgrades over the past two decades, including a complete reroofing in 1998, conversion from overhead to underground electrical service in 2005, and the installation of new sewer infrastructure in 2016 involving a 5" sewer trap and cast iron piping. Heating system improvements include a furnace and flue installation in 2011, although this work initially generated code enforcement action due to complaints about unpermitted installation, leading to multiple Notices of Violation between April and May 2011, which were ultimately resolved by January 2012.

Recent records from 2022-2024 indicate several quality of life issues near the property, though none appear to be directly related to the building's structural or safety systems. These include multiple parking violations involving blocked driveways, with citations issued in several instances, and one notable issue with a sidewalk defect involving an improperly placed toilet reported in April 2022. The most recent incidents include a garbage and debris complaint from November 2024, which was promptly addressed. While these external issues may affect resident convenience, they primarily reflect neighborhood conditions rather than building-specific concerns. The property's maintenance record shows regular attention to critical infrastructure, with all permits issued for major systems work having been properly closed out as completed.

Risk rating

How 925 Dolores 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
35thpercentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 1221 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
