Initial analysis

The three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 574-576 16th Avenue, owned by Krikorian David Life Estate, has a documented history dating back to its 1915 construction. The most significant recent incident occurred in 2020 when construction workers were reported for not following face-covering protocols and causing alleged health hazards, though this complaint was subsequently marked as not active. The building underwent several important maintenance works, including a reroofing project costing $13,140 in 2009, and electrical upgrades in late 2016 involving a new 4-meter socket and main disconnect installation, along with street space permits issued in 2016.

A noteworthy cluster of violations was recorded in August 2002, including multiple safety and maintenance issues that were all addressed and abated by July 2003. These violations encompassed fire safety concerns (such as fire extinguisher requirements), security issues (including deadlatch locks and self-closing doors), and general interior maintenance needs (such as wall painting and floor covering repairs). More recent history shows three parking enforcement complaints between 2019 and 2021 regarding driveway blocking, and a graffiti incident in 2011. The building's only tenant buyout on record occurred at the neighboring 580 16th Avenue address in November 2021 for $40,000 involving one tenant.

Risk rating

How 574-576 16Th 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 size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

DBI tenant complaints (past 7 years)

Formal complaints tenants filed with DBI about this building 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 45.0%
Moderate concern 37.6%
Severe concern 17.4%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
