Initial analysis

The property at 1428-1432 Clement Street is a three-story, mixed-use multi-family residential building located in the Central Richmond neighborhood, containing three units and built in 1914. The building's recent history has been marked by several significant events, most concerning being two unresolved violations from February 2024 involving unauthorized construction, including an illegally installed window and an unpermitted 456 square-foot structure in the rear yard, both of which were abated in March 2024. The building underwent exterior renovations in 2007 with the installation of Hardie board siding on multiple sides, though records show this permit expired. The property has maintained regular housing inspections, with records showing routine inspections in 2000, 2007, and 2011, which were completed without noted issues.

In terms of major renovations, the building's interior has seen significant improvements, particularly in 1986 when major updates were made to the kitchen and bathroom facilities in an apparent substantial rehabilitation project. The commercial space within the building had become vacant as of 2018, prompting a complaint to Code Enforcement, though no further information on resolution was noted. An unusual cluster of abandoned vehicle complaints was recorded nearby between 2018-2021, with multiple vehicles reported and subsequently removed from the area, though these incidents occurred on the street rather than on the property itself. The most recent tenant buyout recorded was in November 2016 at 1432 Clement Street, involving two tenants receiving $52,500 in compensation, suggesting at least one unit underwent rent-controlled tenant relocation during this period. The property has experienced minimal maintenance issues requiring attention, with only occasional street cleaning matters (human/animal waste) noted, primarily during 2018.

Risk rating

How 1428-1432 Clement St'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.
