Initial analysis

The building at 1275 2nd Ave in the Inner Sunset is a 3-story, 6-unit multi-family residential structure built in 1938, currently owned by Daryabi One Llc. The building has undergone several significant renovations and repairs over the past two decades, with the most recent major work being a comprehensive plumbing update completed in 2023 that included replacing the sewer main drain from the garage gate to the sidewalk and installing a cleanout and replacement housetrap. The property has seen substantial unit improvements between 2017-2018, including kitchen and bathroom remodels, electrical upgrades, and plumbing conversions from galvanized to copper piping in multiple units. A notable structural modification occurred in 2017 with the removal of a bearing wall between the kitchen and hallway in Unit #2.

The building has experienced several maintenance issues and violations over its history, with a cluster of problems documented in 2007 including window repairs, heating system issues, mold/mildew concerns, and various interior surface problems, all of which were subsequently abated. More recent concerns include a 2019 complaint about a closet window in Unit #5 and a 2023 issue with a broken sewer line, both of which were resolved. The property has maintained compliance with building codes, though there was a brief period of concern regarding soft-story compliance in late 2017 which appears to have been addressed promptly. Infrastructure improvements have included updates to electrical systems, window replacements, and general maintenance work, suggesting ongoing attention to building upkeep by the ownership. A single fire alarm-related issue was reported and corrected in 2011, with no subsequent fire-related incidents recorded.

Risk rating

How 1275 2Nd 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.
