Initial analysis

The three-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 575-577 3rd Avenue in the Inner Richmond, owned by Susan Aye Aye Phang, was constructed in 1904 and has undergone several significant events over its history. Most recently, in February 2024, the building received an issued permit for reroofing work valued at $12,800, though the project does not involve changes to the existing roof structural sheathing. The building has a notable history of unauthorized work, with violations recorded in 2000 and 2002 for interior and exterior remodeling, including plumbing and electrical work, performed without proper permits - these violations were eventually abated in 2012. Earlier repairs included structural work on a garage beam and sheetrock installations in 2001, and a complete remodeling of the kitchen and two bathrooms in 2002, for which proper permits were obtained after previous violations.

The property has experienced minimal recent issues beyond maintenance work, though there was a building fire incident (specific date not provided) caused by equipment or heat source failure, with no civilian injuries reported. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, with the upcoming roofing work being the most recent significant improvement. Two 311 calls have been recorded for the property: one in 2018 regarding offensive graffiti that was subsequently addressed, and another in 2010 concerning an abandoned vehicle that was resolved when authorities arrived.

Risk rating

How 575-577 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.

Neighborhood percentile

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.

Building age

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 78.2%
Moderate concern 15.2%
Severe concern 6.6%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
