Initial analysis

The four-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 235 25th Avenue in the Lake -- The Presidio neighborhood, owned by Manuel & Aurora Langit Revo, has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance events since its construction in 1916. Most recently, the building underwent a street space permit in 2013, completed a reroofing project in 2015 costing $12,000, and had a furnace swap completed in 2021. The property has a history of addressing structural and safety concerns, including a $18,000 sheetrock repair and voluntary upgrade to one-hour rated construction in the garage and storage areas completed in 2011, and multiple roofing projects in the '90s. Notable safety incidents occurred in 2003 when the building faced multiple fire safety violations related to fire proofing and combustible storage, although these were all abated by August 2003. There were also several routine inspections and unauthorized work complaints, including unpermitted bathroom construction in 2011 and electrical work in 2010, though these issues were subsequently resolved.

In recent months (October 2023 - September 2024), there has been a consistent pattern of parking enforcement issues, with multiple citations issued for driveway blocking violations, particularly during late 2023 through mid-2024. Of the ten parking enforcement calls recorded, five resulted in citations being issued, while others ended with officers unable to locate the offending vehicles or cases being invalidated. The building's maintenance record shows regular upkeep and improvements over the years, with major works including staircase repairs for dry rot in 2002, kitchen and bathroom renovations in 2010, and electrical system upgrades, indicating ongoing investment in the property's maintenance and safety features.

Risk rating

How 235 25Th 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, 475 are predicted to be safer.
