Initial analysis

The property at 1346-1348 9th Avenue is a two-story mixed-use building constructed in 1909, currently owned by William Wayne and Jane Lee Le, containing both residential and commercial spaces. The building's maintenance history includes several significant roof works, with reroofing projects completed in 1996 and filed in 2016, and more recently, wood siding repairs were attempted in May 2024 but these permits were subsequently cancelled. A furnace replacement was successfully completed in May 2024. Notable historical modifications include a major renovation in 2002 transforming the rear retail space into an exercise room and installing new restroom facilities, along with sidewalks repairs noted in 2003.

Recent events indicate ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly in 2024, with multiple sewage-related issues including a discharge incident in August 2024 and a notable sewage backup incident in 2004 that affected tenant living conditions. The property has experienced various urban maintenance issues typical of the neighborhood, including several reports of garbage and debris (with multiple incidents in 2024), and instances of graffiti in May 2022. The building's storefront has faced vacancy issues, with a complaint filed in June 2020, and there have been concerns about unauthorized modifications, as evidenced by a 2016 complaint regarding unpermitted building changes. While some maintenance issues have been resolved, including a recent garbage disposal case and housing inventory matters through the Rent Board in 2024, there appears to be a pattern of recurring maintenance and urban interface challenges that may affect the resident experience.

Risk rating

How 1346-1348 9Th 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.
