Initial analysis

The three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 314-316 10th Ave in San Francisco's Inner Richmond neighborhood was built in 1903 and is currently owned by the Hwang Family Living Trust. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, including a major plumbing upgrade in 2021 that installed new water service connections to all units, reroofing work in 2010 costing $7,500, and an unspecified code compliance project completed in 1986. The building has faced two notable violations in its recent history: a series of fire safety and maintenance issues were identified in 2001 (all abated by June of that year), and more comprehensive safety concerns were documented during a routine inspection in December 2016, including the need for carbon monoxide detectors, fire safety improvements, address some exterior paint issues, and complete various other safety-related tasks, with these violations being resolved by November 2017.

The property has seen regular routine inspections by Housing Inspection Services in 2001, 2009, and 2016-2017, demonstrating ongoing oversight of building conditions. Recent maintenance references include various street space permits and regular utility upgrades. While there has been one documented fire incident assist involving no civilian injuries, it is notable that there have been multiple 311 service calls in the surrounding area during 2024-2025, primarily related to abandoned furniture, garbage, and sidewalk issues, though these appear to be external to the building itself. The most recent work performed on the property includes a street space permit from 2017 and the completed plumbing upgrade from 2021, suggesting the building systems are receiving necessary updates, though the gap in major projects since 2021 is worth noting.

Risk rating

How 314-316 10Th 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

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.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Director's hearing rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building rate of director's hearings across the owner's portfolio.

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 79.5%
Moderate concern 12.5%
Severe concern 8.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
