Initial analysis

The property at 1204 Funston Ave in the Inner Sunset is a two-story, multi-family residential building constructed in 1938, currently owned by the Henry J Sinigiani 2011 Trust. The building is undergoing significant renovations as of November 2024, with major work being done simultaneously on both units (1204 and 1206), including bathroom and kitchen remodels, comprehensive electrical upgrades, and HVAC improvements. The renovations include installation of new insulation, updated electrical systems with subpanels and multiple circuits, new ducting, furnace replacements, and bathroom/kitchen remodeling. A new roofing installation is also part of this extensive improvement project, with permits totaling over $400,000 in work.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to infrastructure upgrades, including a panel upgrade to 200 amps with two meters in November 2024. Historical records indicate some minor issues around the property, with multiple reports of graffiti on nearby street furniture between 2017 and 2020, though all these incidents were resolved by the city's Department of Public Works. Earlier building permits show a reroofing project from 1997, though this permit has since expired. The recent comprehensive renovations suggest a significant investment in improving the building's safety, efficiency, and resident comfort, with particular attention to modernizing essential systems and improving insulation throughout the structure.

Risk rating

How 1204 Funston 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.
