Rent & eviction protection

Is 906-910 Kansas 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 1911

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 1911
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 906-910 Kansas Street is a three-story multi-family residential building located in Potrero Hill, consisting of three units and constructed in 1911. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the past decade, most recently including a re-roofing project initiated in July 2024 with an estimated cost of $30,000, and a complete sewer lateral drain replacement expected to be finished by October 2024. The building has seen consistent upkeep, with major work completed in 2018 involving the replacement of four windows with aluminum clad wood windows, and in 2013 when interior kitchen walls were removed and electrical work was completed for a kitchen remodel. Historical maintenance records show earlier repairs to stairs in 2011 (including an intervention due to a building violation in 2004), plumbing work to address gas leaks in 2011, and various infrastructure improvements in the late 1990s including a retaining wall installation and shed demolition.

The building's recent history includes multiple 311 calls in 2023-2024 primarily related to parking issues, illegal parking, and encampment reports near the property, though these external matters do not directly impact the building's condition. There have been two housing-related inspections in 2004 and 2012, both of which were resolved, and while the property has experienced one incident of smoke detector activation (noted as unintentional with no injuries), there have been no recorded fire incidents directly affecting the building. The property is currently subject to a flood improvements project focused on roof drainage separation, as indicated by planning records, suggesting proactive measures being taken to address potential environmental concerns.

Risk rating

How 906-910 Kansas 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
33rdpercentile

Out of 726 buildings in this neighborhood, 486 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
