Initial analysis

The property at 1505-1507 Golden Gate Avenue is a two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1962, containing two units and currently owned by the Durant Revocable Family Trust. The building has undergone several maintenance updates, including a complete reroofing project in 2007 costing $6,800, while an earlier roofing permit from 1998 remains listed as expired. The building's safety systems have experienced multiple false alarms and minor incidents, including several instances of malfunctioning smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, two gas leak investigations (both determined to be false alarms), and one public service assistance call, though notably, there were no civilian injuries reported in any of these incidents.

The property has experienced recurring issues with driveway blocking over the past two years, with multiple enforcement calls made to address unauthorized parking, though most of these cases were resolved through officer intervention. A variety of other municipal service requests have been logged, including graffiti removal, general street cleaning, illegal postings, and litter receptacle management, all of which were addressed and resolved by city services. These documented incidents suggest regular urban maintenance challenges in the neighborhood, though none of the issues pose significant safety concerns for residents. The building's permit history indicates basic maintenance has been carried out as needed, with no major structural or systems upgrades recorded in recent years.

Risk rating

How 1505-1507 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

Out of 305 buildings in this neighborhood, 18 are predicted to be safer.
