Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 680-684 Hayes Street in Hayes Valley, owned by Tony H Lee and Sunny Yousun, is an 1885 Victorian structure currently consisting of three units. The property has undergone several significant renovations and faced various compliance issues over the years. Most notably, in 2017, the building underwent substantial kitchen renovations in units 682 and 684, including cabinet replacements, new countertops, appliances, and related electrical and plumbing work, with the work valued at $30,000. This renovation followed a building complaint from 2019 alleging unauthorized work and construction noise during late hours. The building was previously cited for multiple violations in 2008, including issues related to stairs, handrails, fire safety, and security requirements, though these were all abated by April 2009. Earlier improvements include a complete reroofing in 2004 and various routine safety inspections over the years.

More recent history shows a pattern of maintenance and compliance activities, with the most notable being frequent reports of overflowing garbage and debris at the property in late 2024 and early 2025, with multiple Recology calls being logged between December 30, 2024 and January 14, 2025. The building has also experienced several routine inspections by Housing Inspection Services over the years (2003, 2011, 2018) and multiple complaints regarding various issues between 2016 and 2019, including construction noise complaints, power washing concerns, and a complaint about misrepresented bedroom counts in 2019. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues and compliance matters, most violations and complaints have been addressed and resolved, with no active violations currently on record.

How 680-684 Hayes St's risk score is calculated
