325 Clipper St

Noe Valley, SF 94114 6554037 3 units · 3 fl · 1987

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 325 Clipper St rent-controlled?

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 1987
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
May be covered by AB 1482. The building is old enough for the statewide rent cap (5% + regional CPI, capped at 10% per year) and just-cause protection after 12 months of tenancy.

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, three-story apartment building at 325 Clipper Street in Noe Valley, owned by Benedicty Trust, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1987. Most notably, in 2015, a previously unpermitted dwelling unit was legalized at substantial cost ($72,335), followed by comprehensive safety upgrades in 2016 including the installation of a new fire sprinkler system with 18 heads, electrical rewiring with modern features (100A sub panel, multiple appliances, smoke detectors), and deck replacement on the south facade. The building has received regular maintenance and upgrades over the years, including HVAC system improvements (furnace changes in 2008 and 2014), water service updates (new water service installed in 2017), and interior renovations (kitchen and bathroom remodels in 2016).

The property's maintenance history shows regular attention to building systems, including a complete electrical system upgrade in 2016, new roofing in 2009, and siding installation in 2000. Recent (2023-2024) concerns have primarily been related to external issues such as roadway obstructions and parking violations, which are typical for urban properties. There have been two tree-related incidents reported in 2021-2020, though these were resolved through proper channels. The building's documented history suggests a well-maintained property with proper attention to safety requirements, particularly with the recent fire safety upgrades and system modernizations. The property has undergone appropriate legal processes for unit legalization and received necessary permits for all significant improvements.

Risk rating

How 325 Clipper 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
24thpercentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 1428 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
