Initial analysis

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 582 4th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Richmond district is a two-story structure with a history dating back to 1906, currently owned by D & C Lee Third LP. The building underwent significant improvements in the mid-2000s, including a ground floor internal remodel completed in 2004 ($6,500) to create a storage and laundry area with a half bath, followed by associated electrical work in 2005 that included installing lighting, switches, receptacles, and circuits for the new laundry facilities. There is a notable historical pattern of stair-related issues documented between 1987 and 1989, with multiple permits concerning repairs and rebuilds of rear stairs and landings, though these permits were either expired or cancelled and may indicate persistent structural concerns during that period.

More recently, the property experienced two related sewer incidents in June 2022, including a sewage backup and issues with a 4-inch sewer vent, though both cases were resolved by the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) Sewer Operations team. Other minor incidents include a rent board customer callback in February 2022, a parking enforcement issue in July 2021 involving a vehicle on the sidewalk, and historical incidents from 2009 and 2013 involving graffiti on a pole and litter receptacle concerns respectively. The building's documented history suggests ongoing attention to stair structure maintenance in the late 1980s and more recent plumbing system challenges, with no documented major structural or safety issues in recent years.

Risk rating

How 582 4Th 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, 603 are predicted to be safer.

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.

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.

Building age

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 81.5%
Moderate concern 12.6%
Severe concern 5.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
