Initial analysis

The 5-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 563-567 3rd Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Richmond district was constructed in 1907 and is currently owned by Targan Fira. The property has undergone significant renovations in recent years, with major work carried out in 2015-2016 including comprehensive interior remodels of multiple units, window replacements, and electrical system upgrades. The improvements included remodeling kitchens and bathrooms in several units, with particular focus on the second floor unit in 2015 (costing $47,000) and the third floor unit in 2016 (costing $92,300). The building's electrical infrastructure was notably upgraded with the installation of a 300-amp service with 6 meters in 2015, and a 100-amp service with 5 meters system in 2006.

However, the building currently faces several active violations from December 2019 that require attention, including concerns about lead paint hazards, non-compliant smoke and carbon monoxide detector systems, fire escape maintenance issues, and questions regarding proper building permits for recent work. While some infrastructure improvements have been documented, such as a roof replacement in 1990 and 1997, the persistence of these violations suggests ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges. A previous heating system issue was reported in March 2016, though it appears to have been resolved, and there have been various utility and parking-related service requests in the vicinity of the building throughout 2023-2024, including concerns about street and sidewalk maintenance that remain open as of October 2023.

Risk rating

How 563-567 3Rd 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.
