Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 131-133 Parnassus Avenue, owned by Lavinghouse Revoc Tr, is a 1922 flats and duplex structure located in the Parnassus/Ashbury Heights neighborhood. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, with the most recent major works including a $14,000 reroofing project in 2017, complete sewer system upgrades including a new sewer line and house trap in July 2017, and the installation of check valves in the garage and alley in 2019. The property has received regular maintenance attention, including the rebuilding of an existing stairway with the addition of a glass awning in 2010, and structural improvements in 2006 involving underpinning work and the construction of a retaining wall.

Historical records show various improvements and repairs dating back to 1990, including multiple electrical upgrades, kitchen remodeling, and garage floor repairs. While there was one building complaint in 2007 regarding an unpermitted shed, this issue was promptly resolved within three weeks. The most recent issues affecting the property have been external to the building itself, with multiple 311 calls in 2023-2024 primarily related to pavement defects on the street outside the property. The building's maintenance record shows regular attention to infrastructure needs, with most permits marked as completed and no outstanding safety concerns noted in the available records. Recent street-level issues have been primarily related to graffiti and parking violations, which are external to the building's management and maintenance responsibilities.

Risk rating

How 131-133 Parnassus 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
69th percentile

Out of 526 buildings in this neighborhood, 163 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

DBI complaint rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building complaint rate across the owner's portfolio.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 73.2%
Moderate concern 15.7%
Severe concern 11.1%
