You should obtain a parking permit if you plan to leave a car parked on the street all day during weekdays.  If you plan to leave a car parked on the street all day during weekdays the first thing we would say is that you should know that you can get around the city without a car and that you might not want a car if you intend not to use it much.  That said, if you must have a car but do intend to use it during the day then we would say that you do not need a parking permit because the parking restriction is only 2 hours between 8 and 5 on weekdays.  There is ample street parking overnight.  There are also parking options - there is the UCSF parking garage 2 blocks away and there is a surface lot on Stanyan about 4 blocks away.  If you intend to be at the house for the day with a car and do not want to get a parking permit that is okay too - you just have to check your car tire to see if it has been marked by the parking department - if it has been marked you simply move the car.
