Initial analysis

The property at 1310-1312 15th Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood. Built in 1958 and currently owned by Fei Yuming & Ye Ziqi, this flats/duplex structure has undergone several significant renovations, with the most recent major work being a sewer and house trap replacement completed in March 2023. The building has seen substantial improvements between 2012-2013, including the addition of two bedrooms, a family room, and a full bathroom on the ground floor, along with laundry facilities on the second and third floors. This phase also involved electrical upgrades with a new 200-amp service and three meter panel box installation, and the replacement of furnaces for both units.

More recent maintenance includes exterior work in 2021 to address dry rot and replace stucco, as well as interior updates such as kitchen cabinetry replacement and plumbing modifications. The property has experienced some infrastructure issues requiring attention over the years, notably dry rot repairs in 1994 and sewer line concerns in 2021. Recent 311 calls have primarily related to tree maintenance matters outside the building, though there have been several parking enforcement issues recorded between 2018 and 2021, including reports of vehicles blocking driveways and sidewalk parking violations. The building's maintenance record suggests ongoing investment in both infrastructure and quality of life improvements for residents, with most recent work focusing on essential systems like plumbing and heating.

Risk rating

How 1310-1312 15Th 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.
