A rare and highly desirable feature in San Francisco, this property is not subject to rent control, providing owners with maximum flexibility in lease management and the ability to adjust rents to market rates.
With 1,306 square feet divided among three separate units and six bedrooms, the individual living spaces are likely quite compact, which may limit the property's appeal to long-term tenants seeking more spacious accommodations.
The immediate neighborhood schools are rated poorly (1/10 and 2/10), which could deter families and potentially impact the property's long-term appreciation compared to other San Francisco districts.
