Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 317-319 15th Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Lennart & Yuki Vandenende, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1904. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with the most recent major renovation occurring in 2012, which included both a kitchen-living room wall modification and the addition of a bay window, along with associated electrical work and solar panel installation. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, including a 2002 reroofing project and various safety improvements to the rear stairs in 2000-2001, indicating attention to both aesthetic and structural maintenance needs. The plumbing systems have also received attention, with water heater replacements documented in 2010 and 2015, though the latter permit has expired.

The property's recent history (2020-2023) shows minimal internal building issues, though there are some external matters to note. There has been one ongoing issue regarding tree roots lifting the sidewalk (reported in October 2020), and three instances of parking violations near the property (2021), though none of these directly relate to the building's condition or management. Older records from 2008-2009 indicate intermittent issues with garbage receptacle management, with multiple reports of bins being left out continuously, though these do not reflect on the current state of the building or its management. The building's documented improvements, particularly the solar panel installation and recent interior renovations, suggest ongoing investment in property maintenance and modernization.

Risk rating

How 317-319 15Th 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
49th percentile

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 1148 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 77.3%
Moderate concern 18.3%
Severe concern 4.3%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
