Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 379 25th Avenue in San Francisco's Central Richmond district is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1917, currently owned by Jerry G. Wong. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and repair works over the past decade, with the most recent major improvement being the installation of a new three-layer bitumen roof (completed in 2024 at a cost of $17,500). In 2012-2013, the building experienced a serious incident when a vehicle impacted the front exterior wall and garage, leading to an emergency complaint designation and requiring substantial repairs including footing replacement and garage door replacement, which were completed by March 2013. The building has also had plumbing work performed in 2013 to repair water services, though that permit has since expired.

The property has an extensive history of maintenance issues related to street conditions and parking violations. Between 2019 and 2024, there have been multiple reports (approximately 10 instances) of general cleaning issues, including garbage and debris on the street, with the most recent report being from August 2024. There have also been several parking-related incidents, including driveway blocking in March 2024 and October 2022. The building's only recorded fire-related incident was a water or steam leak, which occurred without any civilian injuries noted. While the building has had its share of maintenance and street-related issues, no active building violations or serious safety concerns have been recorded in recent years, and the completed roofing work suggests ongoing maintenance of the property.

Risk rating

How 379 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
