Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 1592 Golden Gate Avenue, owned by Hogplex LLC, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1906 in San Francisco's Western Addition neighborhood. The property has undergone significant renovations and improvements over the past two decades, with the most recent major work being a comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodel on the second floor completed in 2020 at a cost of $65,000. In 2016, the building received important safety upgrades including a sprinkler system installation with monitoring equipment, demonstrating compliance with modern fire safety requirements. The building's conversion from commercial to residential use was properly legalized in 2015, adding a third dwelling unit to the property.

Historical records reveal some concerning tenant experience issues, particularly between 2007 and 2010, when multiple complaints were filed regarding lack of heat and hot water, electrical problems, and unauthorized work being performed in the building. These issues appear to have been resolved, with no active complaints since 2014. The property has maintained ongoing improvements to its systems, including multiple bathroom and kitchen upgrades, HVAC system replacements, and plumbing modernization. Recent maintenance and enforcement issues have primarily involved exterior concerns such as graffiti and debris, with several cases resolved by city services in 2023-2024. The building has undergone various internal modifications over the years, including bedroom conversions and bathroom remodels, all of which have been properly documented through building permits.

Risk rating

How 1592 Golden Gate 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
93th percentile

Out of 167 buildings in this neighborhood, 12 are predicted to be safer.

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.

Building age

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

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 62.9%
Moderate concern 19.8%
Severe concern 17.3%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
