Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 4629-4631 Anza Street in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood, owned by the Sanh & Hoa Lieu Chung family, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1929. Most notably, in recent years, the property has seen substantial infrastructure upgrades including a solar installation with 40 PV modules (2017), an electrical service upgrade from 100 to 200 amps (2016), and a complete re-roofing project (2016). The building has also required structural improvements, including the installation of a steel moment frame and foundation work in 2013, likely to enhance earthquake safety.

The property has experienced some recurring maintenance issues, particularly regarding parking violations and street cleaning concerns, with multiple reports of driveway blocking and garbage debris documented between 2023 and 2024. Historical records show the building has received various upgrades over the years, including a bathroom and kitchen remodel (2008), soil stabilization work (2012), and termite damage repairs (1998). Recent activity in the neighborhood includes a significant tenant buyout at a nearby property (4645 Anza Street) in March 2024, involving four tenants and a payment of $85,000. The building's maintenance history suggests regular upkeep, though the recent pattern of parking violations and cleaning issues may be of interest to current and prospective tenants.

Risk rating

How 4629-4631 Anza St'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.
