Initial analysis

The two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 707-709 14th Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Shirley Kazuko Sasaki Trust, was constructed in 1922 and has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years. Most recently, in June 2024, the building received a $15,000 reroofing project, following a previous window replacement in 2003 where two windows were upgraded from wood to paintable wood composite. The property has a history of infrastructure maintenance, including an attempted sewer line replacement in 2012 (permit was canceled), and an electrical survey inspection was issued in July 2024.

The building's maintenance record shows attention to basic upkeep, though there have been some infrastructure-related issues over the years, including an expired roofing permit from 1996 and a 1991 project involving gas vent modifications. The surrounding area has experienced typical urban challenges as evidenced by 311 calls, including reports of street lighting issues (recently resolved in October 2024), garbage overflow (August 2023), and instances of waste that required cleaning (September 2021). While these external issues don't directly impact the building's internal systems, they provide context about the immediate neighborhood environment. The property has maintained its original use as a flats/duplex building, and the records show regular maintenance of both the building structure and basic infrastructure systems, with the most recent work focusing on roofing and electrical systems.

Risk rating

How 707-709 14Th 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

Out of 2250 buildings in this neighborhood, 1102 are predicted to be safer.
