Rent & eviction protection

Is 951 Girard 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.

15+ years since occupancy
Built 1908
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 951 Girard Street is a one-story, multi-family residential building located in Visitacion Valley, containing two units and owned by the Nazaruk Family Revocable Estate Trust. Built in 1908, this flats/duplex structure has undergone some significant maintenance over the years, including a complete reroofing project in 2016 that cost $8,000 and the installation of replacement bedroom windows in 1997. The building has experienced minimal fire-related incidents, with only one recorded instance of smoke odor that resulted in no civilian injuries.

In recent months (2024), there has been a notable pattern of maintenance and safety issues in the immediate vicinity of the building, though none appear to directly involve the structure itself. The surrounding area has experienced multiple instances of abandoned vehicles (two cases in August 2024), several instances of garbage and debris (including furniture, mattresses, and other items) requiring attention from Recology, and two cases of driveway blocking that resulted in vehicle citations in September 2024. Infrastructure issues have been relatively minor, with a pavement defect and a curb/curb ramp inspection in late 2024, though the latter was found to have no issues with recently redone curbs and railings. While these external neighborhood concerns are notable, they primarily reflect street and sidewalk conditions rather than building-specific issues.

Risk rating

How 951 Girard 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
35thpercentile

Out of 214 buildings in this neighborhood, 139 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 permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

Building age

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