Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 231-233 23rd Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1906, currently owned by Stanley R. Gee and Le Kim C. The property's documented history shows several significant events, with the most recent being a concerning pattern of driveway blocking incidents in early 2024, with seven such incidents reported between December 2023 and March 2024, resulting in at least three citations being issued. Prior to these parking issues, the building experienced pavement-related concerns in 2019 and 2021, including a collapsed sidewalk and a lifted sidewalk condition, though inspections in 2021 found no issues at the time. The property's maintenance records show some historical renovations, including a kitchen cabinet replacement completed in 1991 and a horizontal addition completed in 1990, both of which appear to have been properly executed. The building's location has also experienced minor vandalism, with an incident of graffiti reported and resolved in 2017, though this did not appear to indicate any ongoing safety concerns.

Risk rating

How 231-233 23Rd 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
56th percentile

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 990 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.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

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 71.6%
Moderate concern 24.1%
Severe concern 4.3%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
