Rent & eviction protection

Is 165-167 South Park 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.

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 three-unit residential building at 165-167 South Park, owned by Dolch 1990 Trust, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1908 in the Financial District South neighborhood. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most recent being a completed reroofing of the flat roof in May 2024, costing $10,000. In 2014, major exterior renovations were conducted, including replacement of siding, installation of a new metal gate, and stone tile work at the base of the front facade, totaling $50,000. A substantial renovation project was completed in 2012 involving tenant improvements on both floors, including demolition of existing partitions and finishes, along with bathroom and kitchen remodels, supported by separate electrical and plumbing permits, costing approximately $51,267.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to basic upkeep, including multiple reroofing projects (1999, 2024) and window replacements (1997). While there have been some fire safety-related incidents recorded, such as alarm system activations and elevator rescues, there have been no reported civilian injuries. Three fire complaints in 2013 regarding combustible materials and hazardous materials were found to have no merit, and previous violations from 2007-2009 were corrected and closed. Recent issues have primarily concerned street cleaning matters, with multiple reports of overflowing city garbage cans in late 2024 and early 2025, though these are external to the building itself. The property's improvement record suggests regular maintenance and updates, with the most recent work focused on roof maintenance and historical facade preservation.

Risk rating

How 165-167 South Park'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.

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.

Building age

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Property class: multi-family flat

2–4 unit flats (class F) are a common SF building type with their own maintenance and complaint patterns.
