Initial analysis

The property at 744-746 6th Avenue in the Inner Richmond is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1906, currently owned by Kwan Man & May Yu Yan Ng Re. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and safety events over its history, with the most recent being the installation of a multi-zone heat pump and new wall-mount mini-split system in July 2024. A reroofing project was completed in 2013, though there was a complaint filed regarding unsecured construction debris during this work. The building has undergone multiple safety inspections, with notable violations in February 2016 including the need for fire extinguishers, carbon monoxide alarms, and the removal of combustible storage. These issues, along with concerns about wooden stairs, were all addressed and abated by February 2016. Earlier structural concerns included dry rot repairs on rear stairs in 1990 and compliance work on wooden stairs in 2003. The building's history also shows attention to exterior maintenance, with recent 311 calls in 2022 and 2024 regarding sidewalk debris and graffiti, though these were resolved through normal channels. While the property has had various compliance issues over the years, most have been appropriately addressed, with no active violations currently on record.

Risk rating

How 744-746 6Th 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
61th percentile

Out of 1723 buildings in this neighborhood, 672 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 83.2%
Moderate concern 11.4%
Severe concern 5.4%
