Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 763 8th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Richmond district is a two-story structure built in 1978 and currently owned by the Eva Chau King Revocable Trust. The most significant incident on record occurred in March 2021, when a broken window pane on the left side of the second floor posed a safety hazard with glass shards precariously hanging above the sidewalk. This issue was promptly addressed by the Housing Inspection Services department, with the violation officially abated by June 2021. The building's maintenance history shows minimal concerning issues, with only one building permit on record from 2009 for street space and sidewalk work valued at $1.00.

The property has experienced several external maintenance incidents in recent years, with the most recent being a resolved case involving an abandoned mattress in June 2024. Multiple parking enforcement calls have been recorded between 2021 and 2024, indicating periodic issues with blocked driveways and sidewalk parking, though these were typically resolved through citations or officer response. The building's surroundings have required attention to overgrown trees blocking street lights in 2021-2022, and there was one recorded gas leak incident with no civilian injuries. While these external issues have generally been addressed, they represent ongoing challenges in the immediate vicinity of the property.

Risk rating

How 763 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.
