Initial analysis

The property at 1351-1353 22nd Avenue, located in San Francisco's Central Sunset neighborhood, is a one-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1923 containing two units, currently owned by the Hoa Vuong Living Trust. The building's modifications include a 1987 second-unit addition with kitchen and bathroom renovations, and a 2006 fireplace flue extension to meet safety requirements. A notable building complaint was filed in May 2021 regarding unauthorized backyard structures resembling guest houses and a gazebo, though this complaint was resolved by July 2021.

Recent activity at the property has predominantly involved parking-related issues, with multiple reports (at least eight instances from 2023 to 2024) of driveway blocking, though officers were often unable to locate the offending vehicles. The property also received attention for tree maintenance in October 2023, with a request for pruning due to overgrowth being affected by San Francisco's city-wide tree maintenance plan. A significant tenant buyout occurred in November 2021 at a nearby address (1362 23rd Avenue), involving $60,000 compensation to two tenants. In December 2024, a rent board inquiry was resolved, confirming that both units are exempt from certain rent fees.

Risk rating

How 1351-1353 22Nd 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.

2021
DBI Complaint May 21
Residential home in middle of block the backyards of several houses on that block (see photo) if there's a place i can attach one (not on this page) --- i dont know if these backyard structures were permitted or not, but i tried to get permission to build one and was told it was illegal to do so on such a large footprint and close to the back fence. so how were these allowed... one looks like a full on guest house covering the entire width of the property and one strange construction attached to a rear porch that looks like some gazebo ... where do these get the permit to be here????
