Initial analysis

The property at 1247-1249 6th Avenue in the Inner Sunset is a 2-story, 2-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1909, currently owned by Mitchell Liverant. The building has undergone several significant renovations and repairs over the past two decades, with the most recent work being a roofing project valued at $24,000 issued in December 2024. Major improvements were completed in 2013, including bathroom remodels, the addition of a half bath, foundation modifications, and comprehensive plumbing upgrades totaling approximately $75,000. This work also involved addressing dry rot issues, installing radiant heating, and upgrading electrical service to 200 amps. Prior to these improvements, the building faced several challenges, including violations and complaints in 2000-2003 related to an unauthorized basement unit, construction safety concerns, and life safety hazards such as the lack of fire-rated protection and smoke detectors, though these issues were ultimately abated by 2004.

More recent maintenance concerns and incidents around the property have primarily involved external issues such as tree maintenance and parking violations. Several 311 calls in 2024 have been made regarding tree overgrowth, property damage from trees, and utility issues like sewage backup, all of which have been addressed by city services. The building's infrastructure appears to have been substantially improved over the past decade, with significant investments in plumbing, electrical, and structural systems. A minor fire incident was recorded as a false alarm, with no civilian injuries reported. The property has maintained active compliance with building codes and regulations since the resolution of the earlier violations, with no new building-related complaints on record.

Risk rating

How 1247-1249 6Th 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.
