Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2765-2767 Golden Gate Avenue, located in San Francisco's Lone Mountain neighborhood, is a two-story flats and duplex structure dating back to 1905, currently owned by David H Fong & Mei Shen Lvg. The property's maintenance history shows recurring issues with staircase safety, particularly in the 1990s, when a complaint about an unsafe staircase in September 1996 was followed by repair work in December 1996 on dry rot affecting the staircase to the top unit, including the stringer, handrail, and post. This pattern continued into 2010, when approximately 30% of the rear stairs were repaired due to dry rot, underlining an ongoing maintenance concern with this critical building element.

In terms of recent history, there have been several parking-related incidents in the vicinity, with multiple complaints about blocked driveways between 2022 and 2024, all of which were resolved through citations or other enforcement actions. A historical street space permit was issued in 2007, and there was a general cleaning issue regarding loose garbage in 2016 that was subsequently addressed. While the staircase repairs suggest historical safety concerns, no recent building complaints or violations have been recorded, indicating that this specific maintenance issue may have been resolved through the documented repairs.

Risk rating

How 2765-2767 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.
