Initial analysis

The property at 766-768 25th Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by the Au Family Trust and constructed in 1927. The building's maintenance history shows several significant improvements, including a complete reroofing in 1997, conversion of ground floor storage rooms and bath with laundry installation in 1995 (though this followed a complaint about possible illegal units that was resolved within two months), and non-structural stucco repairs in 1989. An expired permit from 1986 indicates previous repairs to the right and center walls.

In recent years, the property has experienced recurring issues with graffiti (most notably in 2021), multiple parking enforcement calls for blocked driveways, and occasional street maintenance concerns including garbage and debris removal. While many of these issues have been resolved through appropriate channels, they suggest ongoing challenges with property maintenance and neighborhood interactions. The most recent building-related service calls have been primarily focused on external concerns rather than structural or safety issues, with the latest incident recorded in August 2024 involving parking enforcement. The building's documented permit history indicates regular maintenance and upgrades over the decades, though the presence of multiple graffiti incidents and street-related complaints suggests occasional difficulties with property upkeep and neighborhood relations.

Risk rating

How 766-768 25Th 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
53th percentile

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 1058 are predicted to be safer.
