Initial analysis

The two-story, 8-unit apartment building at 1352 10th Avenue in the Inner Sunset, owned by Steven Fang, has undergone several significant safety upgrades since its construction in 1968. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $100,000, bringing it into compliance with San Francisco's earthquake safety requirements (Tier 3). More recently, in late 2024, the fire alarm system received an important upgrade to meet current safety standards, including the installation of low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas and a new fire alarm control panel, at a cost of $30,200. The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural issues, with records from 1997 documenting repairs to balconies including dry rot remediation and steel beam replacement.

The property has experienced recurring issues with street cleanliness and parking violations in the surrounding area, with multiple reports of illegal parking and sidewalk cleaning needs documented through 311 calls from 2023-2024. While these external issues don't directly impact building residents, they do reflect on the General neighborhood conditions. There is one active housing inspection case from 2019 related to common area maintenance that remains unresolved as of now. Previous major maintenance work includes reroofing in 2010 and structural repairs in the late 1990s, demonstrating ongoing attention to building upkeep. Two recent fire incidents were recorded, but fortunately, neither resulted in civilian injuries.

Risk rating

How 1352 10Th 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, 1120 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.

Number of units

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

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 36.4%
Moderate concern 23.8%
Severe concern 39.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
