Initial analysis

The property at 1335-1337 26th Avenue in San Francisco's Central Sunset neighborhood is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1939, currently owned by the Maria Matsu Trust. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with the most substantial renovations occurring between 2016-2019. These include a major kitchen and living area remodel in 2016 ($143,000), bathroom remodels in 2018-2019 ($15,000), and a complete rewire of unit 1335 in 2017 that included a new sub-panel installation. The property also received comprehensive updates in 2013 to address fire safety concerns, including fire-resistant ceilings and doors, along with corresponding electrical and plumbing improvements.

Additional notable improvements include the installation of a solar panel system in 2017 (5.232 kW system with 16 PV modules), kitchen sink re-routing and gas line adjustments in 2017, and extensive electrical work in 2005 that involved remodeling and expanding both units. Historical records show foundation work was completed under the front balcony in 1990, and there have been several street space permits issued in recent years. While there have been multiple reports of abandoned vehicles near the property and one driveway blocking incident between 2019-2022, these issues were promptly addressed and do not reflect on the building's condition. The property is currently approved for condo conversion, indicating compliance with necessary housing regulations and requirements.

Risk rating

How 1335-1337 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
65th percentile

Out of 814 buildings in this neighborhood, 285 are predicted to be safer.
