Initial analysis

The 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 793-799 15th Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by the Gee Family Trust, was constructed in 1920 and has undergone regular inspections and monitoring over the years. A significant set of building violations was documented in July 2002, including issues with fire proofing, handrails, stairs, egress obstruction, and gas meter requirements, along with various plumbing and electrical violations, all of which were resolved by January 2003. The building has maintained active compliance with housing regulations, with routine inspections following in 1997 and 2010 showing no unresolved violations.

The property has experienced minimal fire-related incidents, with records showing only false alarms and good intent calls with no civilian injuries reported. Recent activity around the building (2023-2024) has primarily consisted of external issues not directly related to the building's condition, including reports of abandoned vehicles, graffiti, general street cleaning needs, and hazardous materials on the sidewalk, all of which were promptly addressed by city services. A landscaping issue regarding weeding reported in June 2024 remains open. The building's documented history suggests active management and resolution of maintenance and safety issues when they arise, with no significant ongoing violations or building safety concerns on record as of October 2023.

Risk rating

How 793-799 15Th 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
