Initial analysis

The 8-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 363 19th Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood, built in 1961 and currently owned by Hum Ann L, has shown recent commitment to safety improvements with the completion of significant upgrades to the fire alarm system in August 2023, including the installation of low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas and updates to all existing devices to comply with current fire codes. The building has a history of addressing various maintenance and safety issues, including the resolution of multiple fire-related violations in 2002 that involved the fire escape ladder, combustible storage, and the need for a gas utility shutoff tool, all of which were abated by February 15, 2002. Previous complaints and violations from 2005-2009 highlight some recurring issues with water damage, including leaking kitchen pipes and ceiling problems, though these were also resolved.

The building's maintenance record shows attention to both internal and external upkeep, with improvements made to aluminum windows in 1991 and gas piping work completed in unit #2 in 2009. Recent years have seen several 311 calls related to debris and furniture on the property, particularly in 2024, though these were generally resolved promptly. Fire safety appears to be a recurring focus, with three documented fire complaints between 2008 and 2022 regarding combustible materials and alarm systems, all of which were corrected. While the building has experienced multiple false alarms and system activations, these incidents did not result in any injuries. The property's historical records, dating back to 1998, show various maintenance and inspection responses, but all listed complaints and violations have been marked as not active, indicating they have been resolved.

Risk rating

How 363 19Th 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building age

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

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 64.3%
Moderate concern 25.9%
Severe concern 9.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
