Rent & eviction protection

Is 1033 De Haro 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.

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 1033 De Haro Street is a three-story, 1908 multi-family residential building located in Potrero Hill, currently owned by Michael Bell and Pauline Morton. The building, classified as Flats & Duplex, contains two units and has undergone several significant modifications and renovations over the past two decades. The most recent major work, permitted in January 2021, involves converting an existing backyard structure into a new accessory unit, with an estimated cost of $87,500. This follows earlier efforts to add living space, including a 2006 permit for creating an additional unit within the existing building, and a 2004-2005 resolution of violations related to an unauthorized rear accessory building that was approximately 400 square feet in size.

The property's maintenance history reveals several structural and repair projects, including addressing dry rot issues in 2004, termite damage repairs in 2004, and various electrical and plumbing upgrades between 2005 and 2008. These improvements included a service upgrade and rewiring of the accessory structure, conversion of a laundry area to a kitchen sink, and installation of radiant heating. The building has experienced some parking-related enforcement issues in recent years, with several documented instances of vehicles blocking driveways or parking on sidewalks between 2018 and 2022, though these are primarily traffic-related matters rather than building concerns. Historical records show earlier repairs to the front porch and stairs dating back to 1987, indicating regular attention to building maintenance over time.

Risk rating

How 1033 De Haro 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
80thpercentile

Out of 726 buildings in this neighborhood, 145 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
