Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 600-604 26th Avenue in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1923, currently owned by Robert Toy. The building's maintenance record shows some significant historical issues, including a serious incident of termite and fungus damage to the front sheathing in 1984, though this was properly addressed. More recently, in 1992, the property underwent reroofing work, and in 2011, a street space permit was issued with minimal associated cost.

The property has experienced recurring issues with street cleaning and parking violations in the immediate vicinity, particularly between 2020 and 2024. Notable recent concerns include multiple reports of illegal sidewalk parking by a white Tesla in late 2022 and late 2023, though one citation was issued and another went unvalidated. The area has also seen persistent issues with loose garbage and debris requiring multiple clean-up responses from city services between 2020 and 2024, including recent incidents involving electronics in 2024. There were two documented tree maintenance requests in 2022 and illegal postings reporting in the same year, all of which were resolved. A motor vehicle accident with no reported injuries was recorded in the vicinity, though this incident did not occur on the property itself.

Risk rating

How 600-604 26Th 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
62th percentile

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 855 are predicted to be safer.
