Noe Valley, SF 94110 3648020 5 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 1093 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.

Built before 1979
Built 1906
2 or more units
5 units
Property type
Multi-Family Residential

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

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

Located in Noe Valley, 1093 Dolores Street is a 2-story, 5-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1906 and currently owned by the Lee/Wong Residuary Trust. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most recent being a comprehensive fire alarm system upgrade in 2023-2024, including the installation of new smoke detectors, heat detectors, and sounders throughout common areas and living spaces. The building completed a mandatory Tier 3 seismic soft-story retrofit in 2015, which involved structural enhancements including a new foundation and shear walls, demonstrating compliance with San Francisco's earthquake safety requirements.

Recent unit improvements include a 2016 renovation of Unit #2 featuring kitchen and bathroom remodeling, window replacement, and electrical upgrades, while substantial renovations were performed in 2011 on both Unit A (1st floor) and Unit 3 (upper level), including kitchen and bathroom remodels, electrical rewiring, and various structural modifications. The building's maintenance record shows attention to safety and infrastructure, with regular updates to systems including plumbing, electrical, and heating. Historical records from 2001-2008 show one building violation regarding stair repairs in 2001, which was promptly resolved, and routine housing inspections have been conducted regularly. There have been three documented fire-related incidents, though none resulted in civilian injuries. Recent 311 calls (2024) primarily relate to external issues such as municipal services and street cleaning, rather than building-specific concerns.

Risk rating

How 1093 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
28thpercentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 1353 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
