Initial analysis

The property at 1315 6th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1921, currently owned by Xu Yu Yang. The building's most significant and recent issues occurred in 2006 during a routine housing inspection, which revealed multiple fire safety and maintenance violations including problems with fire escape ladders, fire extinguishers, lead paint hazards, and damaged walls and ceilings. These violations were all addressed and abated by June 19, 2006, including a specific repair to exterior stairs that was completed with a $600 permit. Historical records from the 1980s show additional improvements, including a heater replacement and a window-to-door conversion project on the ground floor.

More recent property maintenance concerns have emerged between 2022 and 2024, primarily relating to external conditions. There are current open issues with tree roots lifting the sidewalk, a curb defect, and one recent incident of illegal parking. The building's only recorded fire incident was a smoke detector activation with no fire involved and no civilian injuries. The majority of violations and complaints on record have been resolved, with no active housing or building violations currently noted. Recent 311 calls have mostly been related to external issues such as parking violations and tree maintenance, rather than internal building problems.

Risk rating

How 1315 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.

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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 39.0%
Moderate concern 20.7%
Severe concern 40.3%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
