Initial analysis

The property at 775-777 16th Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Central Richmond neighborhood, constructed in 1922 and classified as a Flats & Duplex building. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past decades, with the most substantial renovations occurring in 2013-2014, including an extensive interior remodel of unit 777 (valued at $40,000) that added a full bathroom and updated kitchen, as well as the installation of new windows throughout the building (both aluminum wood-clad and vinyl). Additional improvements during this period included comprehensive interior finishing work, including insulation, sheetrock installation, and updates to electrical systems with a new 60-amp subpanel, and plumbing upgrades for kitchens and bathrooms.

More recent maintenance includes a reroofing project in 2016 costing $5,800. The building underwent several structural and safety improvements in the late 1990s, including a horizontal addition, repairs to a concrete retaining wall, and various interior modifications. The property has experienced multiple reports of abandoned vehicles in the vicinity between 2016-2018, though all these incidents were resolved quickly by responding authorities finding the vehicles gone upon arrival. The building's documented history shows consistent maintenance and upgrading of systems and structures, with no recorded safety violations or major complaints related to resident experience or safety.

Risk rating

How 775-777 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
