Initial analysis

The property at 1231 44th Avenue in San Francisco's Outer Sunset neighborhood is a two-unit residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Diana L. Brohard. This well-maintained two-story flats and duplex structure has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with the most substantial work occurring in recent years. The latest major renovation, completed in 2022, involved the remodeling of rear stairs to meet code compliance, including the installation of a new deck and a 1-hour fire-rated wall along the property line, with a substantial investment of $150,000. Other notable recent improvements include a kitchen remodel in 2017 ($20,000), bathroom remodel in 2013 ($20,000), and various structural and safety upgrades, including a 2006 repair of dry rot and foundation bolting work and a 2005 electrical system upgrade to 150-amp service.

The building's systems have been regularly updated, with plumbing work associated with the kitchen and bathroom remodels, and the replacement of the furnace in 2008. While there have been typical urban maintenance issues in the vicinity, as evidenced by 311 calls (including reports of illegal postings, an abandoned vehicle, and a sidewalk defect), these incidents were generally routine and promptly addressed by city services. The property's maintenance record suggests proactive management, with all permits showing completed status and no outstanding violations or safety concerns noted in the available records. The most recent significant work, completed in 2022, demonstrates continued investment in maintaining and improving the building's safety and livability standards.

Risk rating

How 1231 44Th 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
96th percentile

Out of 632 buildings in this neighborhood, 25 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Notices of Violation, owner's portfolio

DBI NOVs across all buildings this owner is registered on — a signal of systemic maintenance issues across the portfolio.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 90.0%
Moderate concern 7.9%
Severe concern 2.1%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
