Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 335-337 12th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Richmond district is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1907, currently owned by Wong Fai Philip & Suzuki Ch. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, most notably the installation of a solar power system in 2018 comprising 28 PV modules with a total system rating of 9.24 DC kW. Previous permitted renovations include a kitchen and bathroom remodeling project from 1999, though this permit is now expired. The building has experienced ongoing issues with tree root damage to the sidewalk, with three reported incidents between 2021 and 2024, suggesting an ongoing maintenance concern. The property's exterior has faced some quality of life challenges, including a 2021 incident of offensive graffiti that required intervention from PG&E. A pattern of parking violations near the property is evident, with multiple 311 calls between 2018 and 2024 regarding vehicles parking on sidewalks or blocking driveways, though these are primarily external neighborhood issues rather than direct building concerns. The most recent incidents include three open cases regarding tree root damage from late 2023 to early 2024, while several past parking violations have been resolved through citations or officer intervention.

Risk rating

How 335-337 12Th 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
52th percentile

Out of 1723 buildings in this neighborhood, 827 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.

Building age

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

Neighborhood location

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

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 79.7%
Moderate concern 16.1%
Severe concern 4.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
