Rent & eviction protection

Is 854-856 Hampshire 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 1912

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.

Built 1912
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 two-unit residential building at 854-856 Hampshire Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood is a two-story flats/duplex structure built in 1912 and currently owned by Giovanni Moro. The property's maintenance record shows significant attention to infrastructure, with a substantial reroofing project completed in 2017 at a cost of $24,600, and a completed electrical service upgrade in 2002 that increased capacity to 200A with three residential meters.

Recent and ongoing concerns primarily relate to external property maintenance and safety issues. There are multiple open cases regarding tree root damage to sidewalks (dating from 2022 to 2023), and a 2023 sidewalk collapse that remains unresolved. The property has experienced several public service interactions in recent years, including multiple reports of loose garbage (2023-2024), a parking violation (2024), and an obstruction issue related to a shared space (2024). Historical records indicate that the building's major systems received appropriate upgrades in the early 2000s, though some permits from that period have either expired or their finalization status is unclear. The most pressing current issues appear to be related to street-level infrastructure and tree management, rather than the building's structural or residential systems.

Risk rating

How 854-856 Hampshire 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
65thpercentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 833 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Building age
