Initial analysis

The 1269-1271 5th Avenue property is a three-story, early 20th-century multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood, currently owned by Agrawal-doi Santos Revoc Tr. This two-unit building, constructed in 1906, has undergone several significant renovations and improvements over the past quarter-century, with the most substantial work occurring between 2017-2018. Recent major projects include the enclosure of a 21-square-foot light well in the third-floor unit, complete remodeling of multiple bathrooms, and installation of modern amenities such as a new combi boiler, air exchanger, and skylights in 2017 (costing $72,000). In early 2018, additional improvements included a $30,000 interior remodel of the vestibule, dining/living room, bedroom, and bathroom, along with the installation of a direct vent gas fireplace and associated plumbing work.

The building's history includes earlier major works in 1999 when complete rewiring required extensive plaster and sheetrock replacement throughout the building. A single building complaint regarding an alleged illegal unit was filed in 1998 but was quickly resolved within two months. Recent building records show regular maintenance and modernization efforts, including street space permits, bathroom remodels, and fireplace installations, all of which have been properly permitted and completed according to city records. The property's planning records indicate proper notification and approval processes were followed for the lightwell infill project, which was deemed compliant with height limits and buildable area requirements.

Risk rating

How 1269-1271 5Th 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

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 60 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Building permits (past 7 years)

Number of permits pulled at this address — construction or renovation activity over 7 years.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 85.1%
Moderate concern 9.9%
Severe concern 5.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
