Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1145-1147 Pacific Avenue in Nob Hill is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1915 and currently owned by Kin Cheong & Linhen Ng Revo. The property's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, with significant renovations completed in 2018 that included comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodeling ($35,000), supported by corresponding plumbing and electrical work that added new fixtures, equipment, and safety features such as smoke detectors. Historical maintenance records indicate multiple roof work projects, including a 2005 roofing job ($5,000) and a 1993 project (though expired) for roofing work.

The building's incident history appears relatively minor, with the most notable events being a heating complaint filed and quickly resolved in December 2007, and two cooking-related incidents - one being a contained cooking fire and the other a CO detector activation due to malfunction, neither resulting in civilian injuries. Recent activity has shown some infrastructure challenges, with a sewage-related incident from a manhole cover reported and resolved in July 2024. The property has experienced recurring issues with driveway blocking, with three separate incidents reported and addressed between October 2023 and August 2024. A period of increased street cleaning activity was documented during 2020, likely in response to COVID-19 protocols. The building's systems and infrastructure appear to have been maintained relatively well, with the most recent major updates occurring in 2018 focusing on modernizing essential living spaces and systems.

Risk rating

How 1145-1147 Pacific 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

Grade A–B — Low risk

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 1125 buildings in this neighborhood, 56 are predicted to be safer.
