Initial analysis

The Victoria Sung Trust owns this two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Haight Ashbury neighborhood, originally constructed in 1922. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past 20 years, with the most recent being a $20,000 reroofing project completed in 2020. Notable structural and safety enhancements include voluntary seismic upgrades completed in 2014, bathroom remodeling with associated electrical work in the same year, window replacements in 2013, and lightwell stairway replacement in 2008. The building's infrastructure has been actively maintained, with electrical system improvements including the addition of a third meter for common areas in 2005 and an underground conversion in 2004.

The property has experienced some recent exterior maintenance issues, as evidenced by three 311 calls between December 2024 and October 2024 regarding graffiti and garbage/debris on or near the property. There have been multiple reports of illegal parking in the vicinity between 2021 and 2024, though these are street-related issues rather than building-specific concerns. A false fire alarm was recorded in the building's history, but no civilian injuries were reported. The building's permit history and 311 calls demonstrate regular upkeep and response to maintenance needs, though the recent exterior issues may warrant attention.

Risk rating

How 1529-1531 Oak St'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.
