Excelsior, SF 94112 6275041 3 units · 2 fl · 1930

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 501-505 Lisbon 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 1930

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 1930
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-unit multi-family residential building at 501-505 Lisbon Street, located in the Excelsior neighborhood, was constructed in 1930 and is currently owned by Thl Holdings LLC. The building has undergone regular housing inspections over the years, with the most recent routine inspection occurring in 2011, which revealed several compliance issues that needed to be addressed. These included the need to elevate a water heater with pilot lights in the garage, remove combustible storage from the garages, and several other safety-related items. The building had previously faced multiple violations in the early 2000s, including issues with stair repairs, roof deck safety, gas meter requirements, and security door requirements, though all these violations were eventually resolved.

Recent activity at the property has been primarily limited to parking-related issues, with multiple reports of illegal parking occurring between November 2024 and December 2024, resulting in several citations being issued. There was also one report of garbage and debris on the property in December 2024 that was resolved. The building had sidewalk repair work permitted in 2000, and in 1985, there was a permit issued to bring the building into full compliance with municipal code requirements. The most significant health and safety concerns were addressed between 2001 and 2011, with no active violations currently on record. While there have been numerous parking enforcement actions in the immediate vicinity of the building in recent months, there have been no reported fire incidents or civilian injuries associated with the property in the available records.

Risk rating

How 501-505 Lisbon 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
32ndpercentile

Out of 337 buildings in this neighborhood, 229 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
