Initial analysis

The property at 1395 34th Avenue is a two-story, two-unit multi-family residential building with ground floor commercial space, built in 1938 and owned by Dong Y & Boak W Kim Family Revocable Trust. The building has undergone several significant improvements and maintenance work over the past decades, with the most recent major update being the installation of automatic door openers in 2023 to comply with accessibility requirements, and a bathroom remodel in 2021. Other notable recent improvements include the replacement of four aluminum windows on the second story in 2017, and the addition of a ground floor restroom in 2012, which was accompanied by corresponding plumbing and electrical work. The property has maintained general upkeep with proper permits for major works including plumbing updates (such as a new water heater in 2012), electrical improvements, and even historical matters like roof replacement in 1996.

There have been few concerning incidents on record, with the most serious being a building violation in 2004 regarding unauthorized construction of razor wire, which was abated within three months. A complaint about unsafe building conditions was filed in 2004 but was also resolved. More recently, in March 2023, there was a complaint about a vacant commercial space, though this is no longer an active issue. The building's maintenance record shows regular updates and improvements, with no active building violations or safety concerns as of the latest available data. Recent 311 calls associated with the address have primarily concerned external matters such as street cleaning, parking issues, and garbage collection, rather than problems with the building itself. A 2024 complaint regarding illegal construction was noted, but this appears to have been transferred for tracking rather than being directly associated with this property.

Risk rating

How 1395 34Th 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.
