Rent & eviction protection

Is 7 Wright St 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 1900

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.

Built 1900
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 two-unit residential building at 7 Wright Street in Bernal Heights, which dates back to 1900, is currently facing an active violation regarding its rear retaining wall, which has been documented as leaning with cracks and exposed rebar since June 2024. This 4+ foot retaining wall issue has prompted a recent permit (202409302006) issued in September 2024 for replacement at a cost of $15,000 to comply with city orders. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past decades, including a bathroom remodel in 2014 that encompassed plumbing and electrical updates, a complete reroofing in 2006, and stair repairs in 1990.

The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, though the recent retaining wall violation is of particular concern given its potential safety implications. The surrounding area has experienced various 311 report issues in late 2024 through early 2025, primarily related to street cleaning, garbage, and graffiti concerns, though these are external to the building itself. While the property has had no recorded fire incidents directly affecting it, there is a history of fire safety violations at nearby addresses (2246-2250 Jerrold Avenue and 290 Napoleon Street) between 2018 and 2023, including issues with sprinklers, electrical systems, and exit signage, though these were eventually abated or rescinded. The property's ownership is currently held by Maria Isabel Orozco Barrera, according to available records.

Risk rating

How 7 Wright St'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 1276 buildings in this neighborhood, 561 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.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

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

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.
