Rent & eviction protection

Is 7427 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 1926

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
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

7427 Geary Boulevard is a 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building located in the Outer Richmond neighborhood, constructed in 1926 and currently owned by the Llinas Cecilia Trust. The building has undergone several permitted renovations over the years, including electrical improvements in 2013 (relocation of circuit subpanels), exterior maintenance in 2014 (stucco replacement and wood repair), and historical works such as reroofing in 1989. Between 2008-2013, the property experienced multiple violations primarily related to electrical access and bathroom maintenance, including a notably recurring issue regarding occupant access to overcurrent protective devices, though all these violations were ultimately abated by October 2013. Several building complaints between 2012-2019 indicated persistent maintenance issues, including electrical problems, plumbing concerns, and bathroom waterproofing deficiencies, with the most recent complaint about unauthorized construction work in 2019 that was marked as not active. The property was also found to have engaged in illegal short-term rental activity, which was abated in 2017 following changes to platform policies.

Recent external maintenance records from 2022-2024 show regular street cleaning activities around the property, with multiple reports of garbage and debris that were subsequently resolved. While the building has a history of various maintenance issues, particularly in the 2000s and 2010s, most recent inspection records indicate that major violations have been resolved, and there have been no active housing complaints since 2019. The sidewalk in front of the property has undergone repairs in 2012 and 2003, suggesting attention to public right-of-way maintenance. The property's historical permit records and violation history indicate an evolving maintenance pattern, with most significant issues appearing to have been addressed in the past decade.

Risk rating

How 7427 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
13thpercentile

Out of 1040 buildings in this neighborhood, 905 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
