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 274-276 Day 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 1910
2 or more units

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

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 1910
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 3-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 274-276 Day Street in Noe Valley, owned by Raj & Veena Kohli, has undergone significant renovations and faced several maintenance challenges since its construction in 1910. The property experienced major exterior improvements in 2019, including window replacements and brick removal, with permits filed for stucco wall finish updates totaling $10,000. The building has seen substantial HVAC and plumbing upgrades, including the installation of multiple furnaces and a tankless water heater in 2018. The electrical systems were comprehensively upgraded in late 2018, with new receptacles installed throughout all units. Historical maintenance issues included serious concerns in 2015-2016 with plumbing problems, heating failures, and a collapsed ceiling requiring attention, while 2014-2017 saw chimney stability concerns addressed by October 2017.

The building's history shows a pattern of both maintenance improvements and building code compliance issues. In 2010, multiple violations were recorded including mold/mildew problems, unclear lead paint conditions, and various building maintenance requirements, though all were ultimately abated. More recently, in 2018, there was a complaint about potential unauthorized construction work, specifically regarding the rear addition and window replacement. Planning records indicate concerns about the transition from a 3-unit to a 2-unit configuration, though this was not definitively established. Recent building upkeep has focused on addressing exterior and systems improvements, with multiple permits and inspections indicating ongoing maintenance and upgrading of building systems. The property has seen two significant tenant buyouts in December 2016, each exceeding $100,000. Recent 311 calls (2024) have primarily concerned external issues such as sidewalk maintenance and parking violations, with no new building-specific violations reported.

Risk rating

How 274-276 Day 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
40thpercentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 1127 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Building age

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