Initial analysis

The 12-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 270 7th Avenue in the Inner Richmond, owned by Victor Titoff and Raisa Titoff, has been undergoing regular inspections and maintenance since its construction in 1924. The most significant recent events occurred during the 2015 routine inspection, which revealed multiple issues including inadequate lighting, structural maintenance concerns, and problems with carbon monoxide and smoke alarms, which were documented as violations. Prior to this, the building had several fire safety concerns including fire escape maintenance issues, and fire extinguisher requirements that were documented in a 2002 inspection, along with various building maintenance items such as window repairs and painting requirements.

The building's fire safety systems have required attention over the years, with documented issues in 2016 and 2019 regarding alarm systems that were promptly corrected. The 2023-2024 period shows some external maintenance concerns in the vicinity of the building, including several reports of garbage and debris on the street, though these appear to be outside the building's direct responsibility. Historical records show routine inspections dating back to 1999, indicating regular oversight of the property's condition. The most recent building permit on file is from 2004 for street space usage, though its current status is listed as issued.

Risk rating

How 270 7Th 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.
