Rent & eviction protection

Is 7433 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 1926
2 or more units
4 units
Property type
Multi-Family Residential
Zoning
RM1
Likely rent-controlled. Building age and unit count suggest this property falls under San Francisco's Rent Ordinance.

Based on SF Assessor records. Not legal advice — confirm with the SF Rent Board.

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 1926
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

7433 Geary Boulevard is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1926, currently owned by Qin Li and Ali Muhammet since 2008. The property has undergone significant renovations and safety improvements over the past several years, including a comprehensive soft-story retrofit and foundation replacement in 2016, followed by substantial interior renovations in 2019-2020 that encompassed unit upgrades across all floors, including kitchen and bathroom remodels in Units 1, 2, and 4, installation of a fire sprinkler system throughout the building, and electrical system upgrades. The building underwent a major reconfiguration in 2017 when two existing units were merged into one large unit on the third floor, and a new unit was added at the first floor level, along with a private roof deck.

Several building permits from 2020 indicate bathroom remodeling projects in Units 2 and 4, while the installation of a sprinkler monitoring system was completed in mid-2020. While there were some concerns from neighbors during the renovation period in 2020 regarding construction activity and dust issues, these complaints were filed during the COVID-19 pandemic when non-essential construction was under scrutiny. The building's safety features have been substantially improved, with the installation of 79 sprinkler heads and modern smoke detection systems throughout. Historical violations from 2001 related to lead paint hazards and smoke detector requirements were abated by 2016, and a foundation-related complaint about vibrations affecting a neighboring building was reported in 2019. Recent maintenance issues in 2023 included a sewage backup and reports of medical waste (needles) on or near the property, though these were promptly addressed by city services.

Risk rating

How 7433 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
56thpercentile

Out of 1040 buildings in this neighborhood, 458 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

Number of units

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

DBI tenant complaints (past 7 years)

Formal complaints tenants filed with DBI about this building over 7 years.

Neighborhood location
