Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 423-425 14th Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1922, currently owned by Monroe C. and Audrey Rothschild. The property has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance work over its history, with the most substantial recent improvements occurring in 2017, including a $64,000 kitchen remodel that involved removing walls between living and dining rooms on the top level, accompanied by corresponding electrical and plumbing work. Other important infrastructure updates include the installation of a backflow device in 2019, replacement of the sewer house trap in 2017, and a complete re-roofing project from 1996 (permit status expired). Earlier modifications from the early 1990s include bathroom dismantling and removal of a bearing wall.

The property and its immediate surroundings have experienced various maintenance and compliance issues over the past few years, particularly in 2023. There were multiple street cleaning and general maintenance calls, including reports of flooding in January 2023 that required PUC Sewer Operations intervention. The building's exterior environment has faced challenges such as garbage and debris accumulation, with the most recent incidents recorded in August 2024. While these issues primarily relate to street and sidewalk conditions rather than the building itself, they may impact resident convenience. The most recent significant building-related permit activity was in 2019 with the installation of the backflow device, indicating some attention to infrastructure maintenance, though this was nearly four years ago as of the current date.

Risk rating

How 423-425 14Th 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
