Initial analysis

The 1267-1269 19th Avenue property is a three-story, two-unit multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Central Sunset neighborhood, constructed in 1905 and currently owned by the Kwok Family Trust. The building underwent significant renovations between 2012-2013, including the installation of a comprehensive fire safety system with 58 sprinklers and new fire service connections at a cost of $32,800, complete house rewiring with modern electrical systems, and extensive plumbing updates including new furnaces, water heaters, and gas meters for both units. Major improvements made during this period also encompassed interior remodeling, kitchen and bathroom upgrades, and HVAC system installations. The property experienced a period of vacancy or abandonment issues in 2010 and 2013, resulting in multiple violations related to the Vacant Building Ordinance, though these were subsequently abated.

The building's most recent history shows ongoing maintenance and enforcement matters primarily related to parking issues, with multiple reports of driveway blocking incidents in 2024, most of which resulted in citations or were otherwise addressed by parking enforcement. There are also two recent reports from 2024 regarding garbage and debris issues near the property. Prior to the major renovations in 2012, the building had some maintenance concerns documented in 1999, including issues with locks and windows, which appear to have been addressed during the subsequent renovation period. The extensive improvements made in 2012-2013 suggest the building was brought up to modern safety and comfort standards, with no significant building violations or complaints recorded in recent years.

Risk rating

How 1267-1269 19Th 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
66th percentile

Out of 814 buildings in this neighborhood, 277 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.

Building age

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

Neighborhood location

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 76.4%
Moderate concern 17.9%
Severe concern 5.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
