Initial analysis

The property at 722-726 Central Avenue is a 3-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by the Susan Pi Living Trust. The building has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, with the most recent being a substantial reroofing project completed in August 2023 at a cost of $37,200, and the installation of a comprehensive fire warning and control system completed in October 2024. The property has a documented history of compliance with safety regulations, including a 2015 renovation to convert an attic space back to storage use and remove unauthorized bathroom facilities, which cost $15,000. This work was part of the resolution of issues identified in a September 2009 inspection report (CC-7562) that had cited multiple security and fire safety concerns, including problems with exterior door self-closing mechanisms and combustible storage, though these violations were all abated by February 2010.

The building has undergone various upgrades over the years, including window replacements in 2014 (costing $10,767), kitchen and bathroom renovations in unit 724 in 2006, and several safety inspections by Housing Inspection Services. Recent plumbing and electrical work demonstrates ongoing maintenance and safety improvements. The property's zoning status includes records of 3-unit condo conversion applications, with some historical issues regarding unpermitted window replacements that have since been resolved. While there have been multiple 311 calls regarding parking violations and street cleaning in the vicinity, these are typical urban neighborhood issues and not directly related to the building's condition or management. The recent electrical system upgrades and fire safety improvements suggest a proactive approach to building maintenance and resident safety.

Risk rating

How 722-726 Central 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

12-Month severity forecast
