Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 415 7th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Richmond district was constructed in 1980 and contains four units, currently owned by the Paul & Elan Quan Family Trust. Significant recent improvements include the legalization of a ground-floor unit in 2017 (completed at a cost of $45,000), which included new kitchen and bathroom installations, electrical work, and HVAC modifications. This project was accompanied by various plumbing and electrical permits, indicating substantial renovation work. The building has a history of addressing safety and code compliance issues, as evidenced by a 2015 routine inspection that resulted in multiple violations related to fire safety, including requirements for automatic sprinklers, smoke enclosure doors, and various electrical concerns. These violations were officially abated by March 2016.

The property underwent significant modifications in the late 1980s, including a code compliance project that involved kitchen removal, and had a reroofing project in 1998, though that permit expired. Historical planning records show the property was originally developed as a four-unit building with two stories over garage space, and there was a disapproved variance request related to its construction. Recent maintenance and service records from 2018-2022 show various typical urban issues in the vicinity, including sidewalk maintenance needs, parking enforcement matters, and street cleaning requests, though these external factors do not directly impact the building's internal conditions or compliance status. The most recent building-related service calls primarily involved general street maintenance and parking enforcement, with one open case regarding a collapsed sidewalk from 2021, though specific building-related violations or complaints appear to have been resolved as of March 2016.

Risk rating

How 415 7Th 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

Out of 1723 buildings in this neighborhood, 362 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

Number of units

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Owner's portfolio size

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

No violation 76.0%
Moderate concern 15.0%
Severe concern 9.1%
