Rent & eviction protection

Is 7100 Geary Blvd 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 1925
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.

Annual rent increase cap

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 18-unit apartment building at 7100 Geary Blvd in the Outer Richmond has undergone several significant safety and maintenance improvements since its construction in 1925. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2016 (Tier 2) and upgraded its fire safety systems in 2021, including the installation of low-frequency sounders and modern smoke detection equipment. The building's electrical infrastructure has also seen substantial upgrades, with a new main service installation in 2004 and recent work completed in 2020. Historical maintenance records show attention to basic building integrity, including window replacements (39 vinyl windows in 2004), roofing work (1998), and the removal and replacement of a steam boiler in 2008.

Recent concerns include a 2024 complaint regarding debris management during roof repairs, which the Building Inspection Division addressed within days of filing. The building experienced multiple violations in late 2004 related to fire safety, plumbing, and interior conditions, though these were resolved by early 2005. Fire system inspections have revealed periodic issues with alarm systems between 2006 and 2023, with most being promptly corrected. The property has maintained compliance with fire safety requirements, evidenced by regular maintenance and prompt resolution of violations. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to parking issues and garbage management outside the building, which while not direct building maintenance issues, indicate ongoing challenges with waste disposal systems as evidenced by a 2015 complaint about an overflowing garbage chute.

Risk rating

How 7100 Geary Blvd'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
6thpercentile

Out of 1040 buildings in this neighborhood, 978 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.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.
