Initial analysis

The 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1342 26th Avenue in the Central Sunset neighborhood was constructed in 1955 and is currently owned by the Theresa Kim-chee Lee Family Trust. The most significant recent improvement was a comprehensive $33,000 renovation of Apartment 1 completed in 2019, which included kitchen and bathroom remodeling with new plumbing fixtures, electrical work including new plugs, switches, and lights. The building's maintenance history shows some major work from the past, including dryrot repair in 1985 and an expired reroofing permit from 2002.

The property experienced several safety and maintenance issues in the early 2000s, with multiple violations identified during routine inspections in November 2001 and November 2002, including fire safety concerns such as smoke detector requirements and fire extinguisher maintenance, as well as water damage issues. A 2006 complaint documented problems with window condensation, mold, and paint deterioration. While these past issues were officially documented as abated, they represent the building's historical maintenance challenges. The property currently shows no active housing violations or building code issues, though there is an open noise complaint regarding amplified sound from September 2024. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to street cleaning matters, including multiple reports of Christmas tree disposal in January 2024 and some parking-related incidents in 2022-2024, which appear to be external to the building's conditions.

Risk rating

How 1342 26Th 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
29th percentile

Out of 814 buildings in this neighborhood, 578 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.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 71.7%
Moderate concern 13.1%
Severe concern 15.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
