Initial analysis

The three-story mixed-use building at 1323-1325 9th Avenue in the Inner Sunset, owned by Lee Shing Kit & Julie, was constructed in 1990 and contains three residential units above ground-floor commercial space. The property has undergone several significant commercial improvements over the years, with the most recent permit issued in March 2023 involving the conversion of storage space into a dining area with ADA-compliant facilities, though this work notably excluded the front facade and kitchen areas. Previous commercial renovations include 2012 tenant improvements to an existing restaurant ($36,000), a 2007 kitchen exhaust system replacement, and a 2004 reroofing project. The building has experienced multiple code compliance issues, including a 2012 violation for unauthorized alterations to the fire sprinkler system and several complaints about unpermitted electrical work and unauthorized space modifications dating back to 2000. Health and safety inspections in late 2021 identified issues with fire safety systems (UL certification, extinguishers, sprinkler systems), all of which were corrected by December 2021.

More recent activity shows ongoing maintenance challenges in the surrounding area, with multiple 311 calls between 2023-2024 reporting graffiti, pavement defects, and sidewalk issues, though these are primarily exterior to the building itself. Planning records indicate significant commercial space modifications, including a 2023 approved expansion of approximately 1,200 square feet for the restaurant space, bringing it to approximately 2,100 square feet, along with storefront modifications for ADA access. The property's commercial space has a history of compliance issues and unauthorized modifications, though most recent permits and inspections suggest an effort to address and legalize improvements. The building's systems have received regular maintenance attention, as evidenced by plumbing and electrical permits, including a 2018 backflow preventer replacement and various lighting modifications.

Risk rating

How 1323-1325 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.

Neighborhood percentile
