Rent & eviction protection

Is 190-192 Park 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 1900

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 190-192 Park Street in Bernal Heights is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Frederick A Pfahler Iv & Ly. The building has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance work over the years, with the most recent major work being a reroofing project completed in 2021 at a cost of $16,360. In 2004, substantial renovation work was carried out to convert the building from two units to one unit, including kitchen and bathroom remodels, with associated electrical work completed in 2006. The building's infrastructure has been maintained with various plumbing upgrades, including a furnace replacement in 2016, sewer pipe replacement in 2013, and gas line extensions in 2010. Structural maintenance has been performed as needed, including foundation repairs in 2006 and dry rot repairs in 2002.

Recent activities at the property have primarily involved the surrounding area, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 related to parking issues, including three abandoned vehicle reports, several instances of illegal parking, and some street cleaning concerns. There was also one water leak incident reported and resolved in October 2024. The building's fire alarm system was activated (without any fire) at one point, and there are records of a tenant buyout at a neighboring address (198 Park Street) in 2021 involving three tenants for $60,000. The property underwent a determination process regarding its residential status, with plans to merge two dwellings into one and convert shed space in the rear yard to a dwelling, though this appears to have been finalized as "no net loss of dwellings, however loss of size of one unit." The building's maintenance record over the years shows regular upkeep and improvements, with no recorded fire incidents or major structural concerns that would affect resident safety.

Risk rating

How 190-192 Park 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
57thpercentile

Out of 1276 buildings in this neighborhood, 549 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

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.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Building age

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

Construction spend, owner's portfolio

Estimated permit value across all of this owner's buildings.
