Rent & eviction protection

Is 1763 7Th Ave 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 1955
2 or more units

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.

Built 1955
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

The Wong Trust-owned four-unit multi-family residential building at 1763 7th Avenue in the Inner Sunset, constructed in 1955, has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years. The most recent major work was the installation of electrical panels in 2008 (five in the garage and four in the kitchens), and previous maintenance included a complete reroofing in 2007 and replacement of dry-rotted rear stairs in 2002, during which the deck system was modified from cantilever to a more stable design. The building experienced multiple housing inspections between 1999 and 2018, with particular attention required in 2002 and 2010 for stair repairs and egress obstruction issues, both of which were subsequently resolved.

Recent concerns at the property have been primarily related to exterior maintenance issues, including multiple graffiti incidents in 2023, sidewalk defects, and a missing side sewer vent cover in 2021. The building's history shows regular maintenance and prompt attention to violations when they occur, with all known violations having been officially abated. The most significant building-related issues appeared to be resolved promptly, with records showing proper follow-up inspections and corrections, particularly during the two notable violation periods in 2002 and 2010. The property has undergone periodic routine inspections by Housing Inspection Services, with the most recent one in 2018 showing no active violations.

Risk rating

How 1763 7Th Ave'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
23rdpercentile

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 1150 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.

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.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.
