Initial analysis

The 382-384 31st Avenue property in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1986, currently owned by Shui John & Louise. The building's construction was completed in 1986 after the demolition of an earlier structure, and included the installation of a fire sprinkler system, addition of a basement for storage, and the removal of a fire platform. Over the years, the property has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects, including a $27,000 re-roofing project in 2014 and the addition of vinyl siding in 2006. A notable incident occurred in 2003 when the property received a notice of violation for unauthorized kitchenette installations in the basement, which were subsequently removed at a cost of $30,000.

The building experienced a series of fire safety violations in December 2002 requiring immediate attention, including the need for smoke enclosure door closers, fire extinguishers, sprinklers over garbage receptacles, and smoke detectors in the lobby. All these violations were successfully abated by May 2003. The property's fire safety systems have since been maintained, with a routine housing inspection occurring in 2008 showing no active violations. Recent years have primarily seen external maintenance issues, with multiple 311 calls between 2018-2024 regarding parking violations, sidewalk blockages, and litter management. The most recent building permit activity was the re-roofing project in 2014, and there have been no reported building code violations or complaints in the past decade. The property appears to have maintained compliance with building codes since the resolution of the 2002-2003 violations, with no significant safety concerns reported in recent years.

Risk rating

How 382-384 31St 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.
