Initial analysis

The four-story, two-unit multi-family residential building at 1454-1456 19th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood, constructed in 1926, has undergone several significant modifications and encountered various administrative matters. The most substantial work occurred in 2002, including safety improvements such as the installation of additional metal fire ladders between roofs and revisions to the front door configuration. Prior to these modifications, there was a building-related complaint in October 2000 regarding unauthorized construction affecting a neighbor's window, which was promptly investigated and abated within one day. The building's permit history shows multiple renewal applications in 2000-2002, notably including a change of address clarification from 1454-1458 to 1454-1456.

Recent records from the past few years primarily consist of regular street maintenance and parking enforcement issues. There have been several documented instances of driveway blocking between 2019 and early 2024, with citations issued in some cases. The building experienced one fire incident involving a carbon monoxide detector malfunction, though no civilian injuries were reported. Street cleaning matters were addressed in 2015 and 2017, with the latter involving coordination for median cleaning on 19th Avenue. The most recent activity related to the property includes parking enforcement in January 2024 and a Christmas tree removal in January 2024.

Risk rating

How 1454-1456 19Th 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
59th percentile

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 612 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 floors

Building height affects maintenance complexity and is one of the size signals the model uses.

Neighborhood location

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

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 80.3%
Moderate concern 15.1%
Severe concern 4.6%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
