Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1393-1395 32nd Avenue in the Central Sunset neighborhood, owned by Kyi Aung & Caroline Lim LLC, has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over its history, with the most concerning being a kitchen fire in late 2024 that caused damage to the second-floor kitchen and dining room, requiring $40,000 in repairs and HVAC replacement. The building has faced recurring issues with heat systems, most recently documented in a December 2024 complaint about an unusable kitchen and heat problems, echoing similar complaints from 2020 when the heating system failed to maintain the required minimum temperature of 68 degrees Fahrenheit. The property has a history of staircase-related problems, including dry rot issues in 2020 that required repairs after a notice of violation, and an earlier 1996 permit for back stairs repair. Multiple building violations were documented in January 2020 related to various safety concerns, including the need for fire extinguishers, combustible storage removal, smoke and carbon monoxide alarm certifications, and drainage pipe repairs, though these were all abated by February 2020.

The building's recent activity includes several permits issued in late 2024 for electrical rewiring and kitchen remodeling, along with the replacement of a heat pump, indicating ongoing maintenance and upgrade efforts. Earlier plumbing improvements included the replacement of rainwater pipes in 2020. The property's maintenance history shows attention to structural issues, such as dry rot repairs in both 1995 and 2020, though these problems suggest ongoing challenges with building materials and maintenance. Multiple 311 calls in the surrounding area between 2023 and 2025 have been recorded, primarily related to street cleaning and abandoned vehicles, though these external issues are separate from the building's internal conditions. The recent fire incident, while confirmed with zero civilian injuries, marks a significant event in the building's history, highlighting potential safety concerns requiring attention to fire prevention systems and building safety protocols.

Risk rating

How 1393-1395 32Nd 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.
