Initial analysis

The property at 1351-1353 44th Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Outer Sunset neighborhood, built in 1921 and currently owned by the Ayanian Trust. The most significant recent work, as of December 2024, involves the replacement of three windows, including one street-visible window and two non-visible windows, with an estimated cost of $14,017. This follows extensive renovations completed in 2011 after a fire incident that caused water damage throughout all floors, requiring $50,000 in repairs. During the 2011 renovation, the ground floor was substantially modified to add a bedroom, office, playroom with half bath, and new washer and dryer, while second-floor improvements included bathroom and kitchen remodels, along with substantial electrical upgrades including new service installation and various appliance additions.

The building's recent history shows continued maintenance of public areas, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 primarily related to street cleaning and waste management, as well as some parking-related issues outside the property. Prior to the 2011 renovations, there was one minor fire-related incident in 2009 involving combustible materials, which was promptly addressed. The property has maintained compliance with municipal regulations, with the most recent window replacement receiving proper approvals and permits. The building's location has experienced typical urban residential issues such as parking violations and sidewalk maintenance needs, which have been generally resolved through appropriate channels.

Risk rating

How 1351-1353 44Th 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
