Initial analysis

The two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building at 69-71 Lupine Avenue, owned by the Tane Ong Chan Trust 2004, was constructed in 1951 and has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years. The property has experienced recurring issues with dry rot, requiring repairs in both 2006 (at the rear wall) and 2010 (to the garage facade), with associated costs of $8,000 and $6,000 respectively. In 2001-2002, the building underwent substantial interior improvements including kitchen and bath remodeling, addition of a half bath, window replacements, and installation of skylights, with permits totaling approximately $35,000. A solar electric system was installed on the rooftop in 2006, comprising 4160 watts of DC power.

The building experienced a cluster of safety-related violations in July 2003, primarily focusing on fire safety and security issues, including requirements for smoke enclosure door closers, smoke detectors, gas meter instructions, and entry door viewers; however, all these violations were abated by August 2003. More recently, in January 2024, there was a complaint regarding sidewalk conditions and ADA accessibility, though this case is listed as not active. The property has been subject to multiple 311 calls in 2024, primarily regarding garbage and debris issues on adjacent sidewalks, with some reports of encampments in the vicinity, most of which have been either resolved or transferred to other departments for handling. The building underwent routine housing inspections in 2003 and 2008, though no significant issues were reported in the records following these inspections.

Risk rating

How 69-71 Lupine 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.
