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 1989
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
May be covered by AB 1482. The building is old enough for the statewide rent cap (5% + regional CPI, capped at 10% per year) and just-cause protection after 12 months of tenancy.

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 three-unit multi-family residential building at 7127 Geary Blvd in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood has experienced several significant events since its construction in 1989. A notable incident occurred in late 2018 when the building suffered fire damage to the rear corner, affecting approximately 200 square feet of siding, framing, windows, and sheetrock in units #2 and #3, which resulted in repairs costing $30,000 completed in 2019. The building underwent a substantial kitchen renovation in unit #3 in 2013, including cabinet replacement with associated plumbing and electrical work, followed by some additional work in 2015 and final inspections in 2019. Historical records show the building was constructed in 1987 after the demolition of a single-family dwelling and was equipped with a fire sprinkler system during construction.

The property has a history of maintenance and regulatory compliance issues, including a cluster of violations in 2004 related to fire safety, plumbing, and electrical systems, all of which were abated by February 2005. More recent concerns included a heating system failure and non-functioning fire escape door reported in early 2013, and the aforementioned fire incident in 2018. Several routine inspections have been conducted over the years, including a 1998 complaint regarding water damage in the master bedroom ceiling. The building's maintenance records show regular attention to various issues, with multiple 311 calls recorded between 2014-2023 primarily relating to exterior maintenance such as cleaning, graffiti removal, and infrastructure repairs. The most recent building-related service requests have been routine in nature, suggesting that major compliance issues have been addressed.

Risk rating

How 7127 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
85thpercentile

Out of 1040 buildings in this neighborhood, 156 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.

Neighborhood location

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

Building size

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.
