Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 580-582 36th Avenue in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood, owned by the Ho Family Trust, was constructed in 1988 and is classified as a two-story flats/duplex structure. The property's documented history shows significant exterior improvements made in 2004 when the building underwent a $10,000 renovation project that involved removing stucco and replacing twelve windows at the front of the house. Prior to this, in 1986, there were permits issued for the demolition of storage structures on the property.

The building's incident record reveals several parking-related issues in recent years, with three documented incidents involving vehicles either blocking driveways or parking on sidewalks between 2014 and 2022. Most notably, in April 2022, there were two calls regarding a black Cobalt LS blocking a driveway, though enforcement officers were either unable to locate the vehicle or deemed the complaint invalid due to incomplete information. Earlier, in September 2019, there was an incident involving a silver Toyota parked on the sidewalk, which also resulted in officers being unable to locate the vehicle. A minor infrastructure issue occurred in March 2014 when a streetlight on a wooden pole nearby was reported as burnt out, though this was promptly resolved within two days. While the building's permit history shows regular maintenance and improvements, the parking-related incidents suggest ongoing challenges with parking compliance in the immediate vicinity.

Risk rating

How 580-582 36Th 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
