427 Paris St

Excelsior, SF 94112 6086019 2 units · 3 fl · 1906

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Is 427 Paris 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 before 1979
Built 1906
2 or more units

Property type

Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

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 1906
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-story, two-unit multi-family residential building at 427 Paris Street in the Excelsior neighborhood, owned by Miguel Suarez and Anttila-sua, has undergone several significant renovations since its construction in 1906. The most substantial work occurred between 2003-2005 when approximately $210,000 was invested in demolishing and rebuilding the rear portion of the building, along with a horizontal addition at the ground and first floor levels. This project was followed by multiple electrical and garage system upgrades in 2008, including a complete renovation of the garage electrical system, installation of new lighting fixtures, and a furnace replacement. The building's exterior received attention in 2014 with an $28,000 project for wood siding replacement on the front elevation and dentil restoration, though this permit ultimately expired.

The property has had some regulatory issues, including a complaint in 2000 regarding an unpermitted back room construction that allegedly posed safety concerns. While this complaint was marked as abated in 2001, it indicates prior compliance challenges. More recently, the building has experienced various neighborhood issues typical of urban environments, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 primarily related to parking violations, though none directly related to building conditions. There were also some sanitation concerns reported in late 2024 regarding garbage and debris, which were subsequently resolved. A fire complaint regarding weeds and grass was filed and corrected between September and December 2020, demonstrating that the property has had some maintenance issues requiring attention, though these appear to have been resolved promptly.

Risk rating

How 427 Paris 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
43rdpercentile

Out of 337 buildings in this neighborhood, 192 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
