Initial analysis

The 6-unit, 2-story apartment building at 322 32nd Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by the Chaudoir Family Trust, has undergone several significant renovations and faced various compliance requirements since its construction in 1962. Most notably, the building successfully completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2016 (cost: $40,000), bringing it into compliance with San Francisco's seismic safety requirements. The property has received regular maintenance, including an $22,000 lap siding replacement in 2018 and reroofing work completed in 1990.

The building has experienced several violations and complaints over its history, most of which have been resolved. A series of fire safety violations were recorded in 2003, including issues with fire proofing and fire extinguisher placements, all of which were abated by September 2005. A significant safety concern arose in 2015 when the rear chimney was reported as "falling apart" and potentially endangering neighboring properties, though this issue was promptly addressed by March 2015. Routine inspections in 1997 and 2003 were conducted by Housing Inspection Services, and two false alarm incidents were recorded by the fire department, with no civilian injuries reported. More recently, in 2017, there were two service requests to the Department of Public Works and an abandoned vehicle report, though these do not directly relate to building safety or conditions. The property's maintenance record shows regular attention to building code compliance and infrastructure upkeep, with all major violations having been resolved.

Risk rating

How 322 32Nd 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 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 1688 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building age

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 74.6%
Moderate concern 18.4%
Severe concern 7.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
