Initial analysis

The property at 230 24th Avenue is a 2-story, 3-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1920, currently owned by Alexander & Shari W Bard Rv. The building has undergone significant improvements and maintenance over recent years, with particular attention paid to safety systems and modernization. Of note is the installation of a comprehensive fire sprinkler system throughout the building in 2019, including underground service, followed by the recent legalization of kitchen modifications on the 4th floor in 2024. The building experienced a notable enforcement action in 2019 related to facade work, leading to the installation of a new brick facade on the ground floor and the correction of various safety violations. In 2017, several interior issues were identified including mold/mildew concerns, electrical problems, and water damage, all of which were addressed and officially abated by November 2018.

Recent building improvements include the addition of new fire safety equipment, door replacements, and various plumbing upgrades, including the installation of two new water heaters and multiple bathroom upgrades. The property is currently under review for modifications to address a 2022 enforcement action regarding unit configurations, with no exterior changes proposed. All known safety violations have been resolved, with the most recent fire safety inspection in 2023 showing corrected conditions. The building's maintenance history demonstrates ongoing investment in safety systems and structural integrity, with regular updates to meet current standards and address any identified issues.

Risk rating

How 230 24Th 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
88th percentile

Out of 660 buildings in this neighborhood, 79 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

Building permits (past 7 years)

Number of permits pulled at this address — construction or renovation activity over 7 years.

Building age

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

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 75.0%
Moderate concern 20.8%
Severe concern 4.2%
