Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 751-753 16th Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Takashi & Suzie M Okazaki R, was constructed in 1922 and is classified as a Flats & Duplex structure with two stories. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and repair works over the years, most notably in 2011 when multiple violations were documented, including issues with weather protection, windows, heating, plumbing, and paint. These violations, along with electrical safety concerns involving open wiring and smoking sockets, were officially addressed through repairs to rotted siding and rear stairs costing $4,500, which were completed in November 2011. The building has seen regular maintenance work, including three separate roofing projects in 2005 ($8,500), 2008 ($9,000), and 2011, and a substantial electrical upgrade in 2004 that included a 200-amp service upgrade with three 100-amp panels. While the property experienced various issues in 2011 related to moisture and paint problems, these appear to have been resolved as there have been no active violations recorded since November 2011, and more recent maintenance records show regular upkeep of building systems. The building's location has had recurring issues with parking enforcement, with multiple reports of abandoned vehicles and driveway-blocking incidents between 2016 and 2022, though these are external to the building's condition and maintenance history.

Risk rating

How 751-753 16Th 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
