Initial analysis

The 2-story, 4-unit multi-family residential building at 751-753 8th Avenue in the Inner Richmond, owned by the Lee Family Trust, was constructed in 1910 and has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over its lifespan. Most notably, in 2017 the building underwent a comprehensive correction of safety violations, including the installation of proper deadlatch locks, handrails, carbon monoxide detectors, updated fire extinguishers, and a fire escape maintenance review, with all violations officially abated by July 11, 2017. The building's maintenance history includes a roof replacement completed in 1992 and more recent plumbing work in 2018 involving repair of a broken lateral. The property has been subject to regular routine safety inspections in 2001, 2010, and 2017, demonstrating ongoing oversight of building conditions.

Recent records from 2023-2024 show multiple issues related to parking violations around the property, with several documented cases of vehicles blocking driveways or parking on sidewalks, though enforcement officers were often unable to locate the vehicles in question. The building's surrounding area has experienced some issues with street cleanliness, as indicated by multiple reports of garbage and debris requiring attention. While there have been two fire-related incidents recorded (one a false alarm and one for emergency medical services), neither involved civilian injuries. The building has maintained compliance with routine inspections and correction of safety violations, with no active violations currently on record.

Risk rating

How 751-753 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.
