Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1235-1237 Leavenworth Street in Nob Hill, owned by Jennifer Wing Julian, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1907. The property has undergone significant renovations in 2015, with two major projects completed: one costing $25,000 in June and another $20,000 in September, both involving comprehensive kitchen and bathroom updates including new cabinets, countertops, tiles, and fixtures. These renovations included substantial electrical work, with the June project featuring 12 lights, 6 switches, and various kitchen appliances, while the September project included 4 lights, 3 switches, and additional modern amenities. During this period, there were associated plumbing updates, though some permits from June (for sink, faucet, and various fixture replacements) and July (furnace replacement) were marked as expired.

The building's maintenance history reveals some concerning issues, particularly prior to the 2015 renovations, with complaints about a non-working water heater and bathroom mold in October 2013, and earlier that same year, problems with chipping paint that led to a violation in December 2009, though these were abated by April 2010. More recently, there have been persistent sanitation issues reported through 311 calls, with multiple reports of human waste or urine on the property recorded in August 2024, though these were deemed to be private property matters. The property has experienced recurring issues with parking violations, particularly between 2020 and 2022, with several citations issued for driveway blocking, though these were successfully addressed by parking enforcement. While the building has received substantial modernization through the 2015 renovations, the recent history suggests ongoing challenges with property maintenance and street cleanliness, particularly in areas adjacent to the building.

Risk rating

How 1235-1237 Leavenworth 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

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.
