Initial analysis

The 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 327 11th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Richmond district, owned by the Lorna May Choy Trust, has been standing since 1972 and has undergone several significant maintenance events over the years. Most recently, the property underwent a sewer replacement in February 2021, which has been completed, and experienced an issue with an electric stove where 3 out of 4 burners were reported not working in July 2021. The building's safety features were addressed in 2002 when a smoke detector was installed in the lobby following a violation notice that was resolved within approximately 1.5 months. The building's historical maintenance record includes a reroofing project from 1995, though this permit has since expired.

The surrounding area has experienced various infrastructure and maintenance issues in recent years, with the most pressing being a collapsed sidewalk reported in September 2023, which was resolved through utility maintenance. Other recent incidents include loose garbage cleanup in May 2023 and two parking-related complaints in 2021. While the building itself has maintained compliance with safety inspections and resolved its only recorded building violation, the immediate vicinity has seen several maintenance issues, including a damaged tree removal in 2019, an abandoned vehicle incident in 2014, and a graffiti incident in 2012, all of which were resolved through appropriate city services. Regular housing inspections have been conducted throughout the building's history, with records showing timely resolution of identified issues.

Risk rating

How 327 11Th 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.
