Initial analysis

The 4-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 1300-1302 4th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood was built in 1913 and is currently owned by Zachary & Jennifer Granger. The property has undergone several significant structural improvements over the years, with the most recent major work being a complete reroofing project completed in 2017 at a cost of $20,000. In 2006, the building underwent substantial repairs following multiple violations including issues with stairs, water heaters, fire proofing, and gas meter requirements, though all these violations were abated by May 31, 2006. The building underwent a notable conversion in 1990-1992, transforming two ground-floor studio apartments into a single two-bedroom unit.

More recently, the property has experienced recurring issues with sidewalk cleanliness and maintenance, with multiple 311 calls in late 2024 and early 2025 related to garbage, debris, and waste management on adjacent public spaces, though these cases were generally resolved promptly. A building complaint about unauthorized demolition and construction was filed in 2009 but was quickly resolved within a week. The most recent planning record indicates a closed informational discussion regarding the property with Robert F. Shepherd of Grey Studio, though no specific outcome or action is noted in the records. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep and addressing of violations, with no active violations or complaints currently on record.

Risk rating

How 1300-1302 4Th 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, 926 are predicted to be safer.
