Initial analysis

The property at 567-569 17th Avenue is a well-maintained two-unit residential building located in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood. Built in 1915, this two-story flats and duplex building has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades. Most notably, in 2024, installation of a new main water line was initiated, marking the most recent infrastructure upgrade. The building has seen substantial modernization efforts, including a kitchen renovation in 2019 with new cabinets, countertops, and electrical work, and more recently, electrical updates for kitchen remodeling in 2021. Structural maintenance has been addressed through various projects, including a balcony repair in 2019, installation of vinyl siding in 2009, and replacement of 12 vinyl windows in 2009, all of which were completed in compliance with building codes. An attempted reroofing project in 2021 was cancelled, though this may not necessarily indicate a problem. The building's systems have been progressively updated, with plumbing improvements including gas line relocation and water line work, while the electrical system saw a major upgrade with a 100-amp service installation in 2002.

The property has experienced minimal external issues, with only a few 311 calls recorded over the years, primarily relating to street lighting and graffiti on nearby public infrastructure, rather than the building itself. These incidents were all resolved promptly by city services. The owners, Lee Michael K & Danny, have demonstrated consistent attention to building maintenance and upgrades, with all major improvements properly permitted and most completed according to regulations. The only permit of concern is the cancelled reroofing permit from 2021, though this appears to be an isolated incident in an otherwise well-documented history of property maintenance and improvement.

Risk rating

How 567-569 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 675 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.

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.

Notices of Violation, owner's portfolio

DBI NOVs across all buildings this owner is registered on — a signal of systemic maintenance issues across the portfolio.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 83.3%
Moderate concern 13.8%
Severe concern 2.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
