Initial analysis

The four-story, 12-unit apartment building at 1751 Pacific Avenue in Pacific Heights, owned by KRK Pacific Limited LLC, was constructed in 1963 and has undergone several significant improvements and maintenance work over the years. The most recent major work was completed in 2020, involving in-kind repairs to the front balcony's siding due to dry rot at a cost of $2,000. Between 2013 and 2014, multiple interior unit renovations were successfully completed, including substantial updates to Units 1, 3, 10, and 12, featuring kitchen and bathroom remodels with modern fixtures and high-efficiency lighting installations. These improvements included comprehensive electrical and plumbing upgrades, with all related permits marked as complete.

The building has experienced several notable issues requiring attention over its history, particularly related to fire safety systems. Most recently, in 2024, there were fire complaints regarding sprinkler systems and combustible materials, with one condition corrected and one determined to have no merit. Previous fire safety concerns were documented in 2018 (violations for alarm systems and sprinkler systems), 2017 (various fire safety issues), and 2002 (multiple fire violations including egress obstruction and fire proofing repairs). Significant renovation-related complaints were recorded in 2013 regarding unauthorized work and potential structural concerns during unit upgrades. The property has also faced periodic maintenance challenges, including a 2012 complaint about window and skylight issues, security concerns in 2008, and a 2013 violation for unpermitted water heater installation that was subsequently abated. Recent 311 calls indicate typical urban maintenance issues around the property, which are being addressed through normal city channels.

Risk rating

How 1751 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 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 799 are predicted to be safer.
