Initial analysis

The property at 659 33rd Avenue is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building owned by Nazar Properties Ii LLC, dating back to 1925 in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over the past few years, with the most significant recent incident occurring in July 2023 when unauthorized construction work in the garage triggered a violation regarding an unpermitted brick structure and ductwork modifications, as well as improper fire-rated ceiling repairs. This violation was addressed with proper permits in August 2023, involving the demolition of the brick structure and installation of correct ductwork. The building's maintenance history shows recurring attention to stairway safety, with multiple repairs to exterior stairs documented between 1992 and 2017 due to rot issues, most recently in 2017 with work performed on an internal lightwell staircase.

The property has undergone various infrastructure improvements, including the installation of a new copper water line and motion sensor lighting in 2010, though these permits have since expired. Earlier building complaints from 2002 regarding fireproofing repairs were resolved within two months. Additional building permits suggest ongoing maintenance, including work on the garage structure and stairways. The surrounding area has experienced typical urban issues as documented in 311 calls, including sidewalk parking violations and environmental health complaints, though these were generally addressed promptly. A notable external change to the building was the removal of a brick chimney from the rear exterior, as documented in planning records. While the building has had its share of maintenance challenges, the recent prompt correction of building code violations suggests active management of the property.

Risk rating

How 659 33Rd 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.
