Initial analysis

The property at 511 35th Avenue in the Outer Richmond is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1989, currently owned by the Yenny Sadikin Living Trust. The building has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, most notably a major renovation of Unit 513 in late 2022 that included kitchen remodeling with layout changes, bathroom renovations, flooring updates, and back stair tread replacement, with associated structural, plumbing, and electrical work totaling approximately $65,000. In early 2023, additional improvements were completed including roofing work ($11,000) and electrical system upgrades, though a solar panel installation project from late 2019 shows as expired. The building's original construction history includes the demolition of a single-family dwelling in 1987 and the completion of the two-unit structure later that year, with sprinkler system installation added in 1988.

The property's maintenance and incident history shows regular upkeep and minimal issues, with no recorded safety violations or emergencies. Numerous 311 calls have been made from the address between 2015 and 2024, predominantly involving parking-related complaints and vehicle-related incidents outside the building, which were largely resolved by authorities. There have been three documented tree-related service requests since 2015, all of which were resolved. The building's permit history and regular maintenance schedule suggest active management and upkeep of the property, particularly through significant recent investments in unit renovations and system upgrades. All major building permits required for recent improvements have been properly obtained and completed, indicating compliance with local regulations and building codes.

Risk rating

How 511 35Th 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
82th percentile

Out of 1040 buildings in this neighborhood, 187 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.

Neighborhood location

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

Building age

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

Notices of Violation, owner's portfolio

DBI NOVs across all buildings this owner is registered on — a signal of systemic maintenance issues across the portfolio.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 90.0%
Moderate concern 8.1%
Severe concern 1.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
