Initial analysis

The property at 716-718 8th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Richmond district is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building, completed in 1998 after the demolition of the previous structure, with construction costs of $350,000. The building's permit history shows proper procedural adherence to demolishing the old structure and erecting the new one in May 1997. During its operational period from 2018 to mid-2024, the building has experienced recurring issues with street cleaning and garbage accumulation in the vicinity, with seven incidents reported through 311 calls, including various types of loose garbage and debris.

The property has faced significant challenges with parking violations, particularly in 2018-2024, with multiple documented instances of blocked driveways and illegal parking, including at least one confirmed citation issued in June 2018 for a blocking Ford Fusion. While most parking enforcement cases resulted in either officer response without locating the offending vehicle or being logged for data collection purposes, their frequency suggests ongoing challenges with parking management in the immediate area. Other notable incidents include two general cleaning complaints in 2019 and 2023, one case of offensive graffiti on a pole in April 2019, and a lock-in situation that resulted in no civilian injuries, though no date is specified for this event. The overall pattern of reported incidents suggests a persistent need for attention to street maintenance and parking enforcement in the immediate vicinity of the building, particularly regarding issues affecting the public right-of-way.

Risk rating

How 716-718 8Th 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.
