Initial analysis

The property at 806-808 25th Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1923, currently owned by the Phat Lu Family Trust. The building's history reveals several significant events, particularly regarding unauthorized modifications and subsequent corrective actions. Most notably, in July 2009, there was a complaint regarding an alleged illegal unit behind the garage, which reportedly contained a full bathroom and multiple rooms being used as bedrooms and living space. This violation was addressed promptly, resulting in the legalization of a storage room conversion to a bedroom, with associated plumbing modifications, at a cost of $15,000. The building has undergone various permitted improvements over the years, including reroofing in 2003 ($8,400), a 14-inch facade extension in 2003 ($800), and the addition of laundry and storage facilities at the rear of the garage in 1998.

The property has experienced repeated concerns regarding unauthorized modifications, with three separate complaints between 2003-2014 about illegal units behind the garage or modifications without proper permits. All these complaints were resolved, typically within one week of filing. More recently, from 2017 onwards, there have been multiple parking-related incidents in the vicinity of the property, including several citations for illegal parking and sidewalk blocking, though these are external issues not directly related to the building's condition or compliance status. The most recent significant building-related incident was a fallen tree complaint in 2011, which was addressed by the Department of Public Works. The property appears to be in compliance with current regulations, with no active violations on record, though the history of unauthorized modifications suggests careful attention should be paid to any future building changes or improvements.

Risk rating

How 806-808 25Th 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.
