The two-unit, two-story residential building at 45-47 14th Ave, owned by Melitas Irene Jane, was constructed in 1940 and has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the past three decades. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, including three roofing projects (2007, 1993, and a later unspecified date), multiple siding replacements, and deck renovations in 2013 and 2010. Electrical system improvements include an underground service conversion with two meters completed in 2003, and plumbing upgrades featuring new water heaters installed in the garage in 2016. The property has also seen interior improvements with cabinet replacement and electrical circuit upgrades in 2000, demonstrating ongoing maintenance of both the building's interior and exterior components.

Recent building and neighborhood conditions have been documented through various service requests, primarily related to street cleaning and abandoned vehicles.

Risk rating

How 45-47 14Th 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

Out of 660 buildings in this neighborhood, 112 are predicted to be safer.
