Initial analysis

The property at 1394-1396 25th Avenue in San Francisco's Central Sunset neighborhood is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building with commercial space, built in 1947 and currently owned by Suet Lin Louie Revoc Tr. The building has undergone several maintenance and improvement projects over the years, including reroofing in 2004 ($4,000), electrical system upgrades in 2005 (including installation of new lighting, switches, receptacles, and a 150-amp panel), and multiple window installations between 1984 and 1991. Infrastructure improvements have included sidewalk repairs in 2007 and street space modifications in 2008.

Recent data from late 2024 shows persistent issues with garbage and debris in the vicinity of the property, particularly during October 2024 when there were multiple reports of overflowing city garbage cans. Since September 2024, there have been numerous 311 calls regarding street and sidewalk cleaning, with most cases being resolved through city intervention. An open case from October 2024 concerns the addition of a new garbage can. While these recent sanitation issues primarily affect the street and sidewalk areas rather than the building itself, they may impact resident convenience and enjoyment of the surrounding area. The building's historical maintenance record shows regular upkeep, with no major safety violations or concerning incidents on file through October 2023.

Risk rating

How 1394-1396 25Th 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.
