Initial analysis

The property at 563-565 17th Avenue, located in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood, is a two-unit, two-story plus basement building constructed in 1916. The recent history of the building shows a completed administrative permit in March 2024 that documented its legal two-unit occupancy status, following a review of historical maps and records by the Department of Building Inspection. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvements over the years, including a sewer line replacement in 2011, installation of vinyl siding in 2007, reroofing in 2005, and window replacements in 2003. An important maintenance issue was documented in October 2011 regarding a heavy garage door that was difficult to operate, though this complaint was marked as "Not Active" on the same day it was filed.

The property has a documented history of abandoned vehicle complaints in the vicinity, particularly in 2011-2012, with multiple reports (at least ten) regarding a silver Toyota Tundra pickup truck, though these complaints were generally resolved when vehicles were found to be gone upon inspection. Earlier building improvements included aluminum window installation in 1988 (permit expired), and there have been two street space permits issued in 2009 and 2011. The building's maintenance record suggests regular upkeep, with no recent violations or building code issues reported, and all recent permits have been properly closed out.

Risk rating

How 563-565 17Th 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.
