Initial analysis

The property at 1235-1237 25th Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Central Sunset neighborhood, owned by Mcnair James P Co Inc. Built in 1926, this flats and duplex structure has undergone several significant maintenance and infrastructure improvements over the years. Most notably, the building received a complete reroofing in 2018, with work completed in June at a cost of $9,680, following a previously cancelled reroofing permit from January of the same year. In 2002, substantial structural work was completed with the installation of seven underpinning piers at the south property line wall, costing $4,500.

The property has experienced recurring issues with parking violations, particularly concerning driveway access, with seven documented incidents between 2018 and 2024. While most of these cases were addressed by parking enforcement officers, there were several instances where the offending vehicles could not be located or the owners were not found at the time of enforcement. Other notable incidents include a sidewalk and street cleaning issue in January 2020 involving waste removal, and a construction equipment blockage in October 2018 that was promptly addressed by Recology. The building's maintenance record shows regular upkeep, with the most recent documented work relating to historical parking enforcement cases rather than structural or maintenance concerns, suggesting the property is currently in stable condition with no recent major repairs or violations on record.

Risk rating

How 1235-1237 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.

Neighborhood percentile
39th percentile

Out of 814 buildings in this neighborhood, 497 are predicted to be safer.
