Initial analysis

The property at 1409-1411 12th Avenue in the Inner Sunset is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1947, currently owned by the Eagen Schneirow Living Trust. The building has undergone significant improvements and major maintenance work over the past decade, with particular attention to seismic safety being a priority. In 2012, a voluntary seismic upgrade was completed including installation of a steel moment frame and structural improvements ($15,000), followed by foundation bolting and garage shear panel installation in 2013 ($2,500). The building's mechanical systems were comprehensively updated in 2011, with the replacement of two furnaces and water heaters, along with electrical system upgrades including new subpanels and circuits for both units ($11,000 total).

Recent records indicate some regulatory compliance issues, including a building complaint in December 2013 regarding concrete hallway demolition and after-hours work, though this complaint is now listed as not active. The property has also had multiple utility improvements, including water main replacement in 2013 and various plumbing upgrades. Exterior enhancements were completed in 2012, including window replacement and building stucco work. The location has experienced periodic issues with sidewalk parking, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls between 2018 and 2024, and several complaints about abandoned vehicles in the vicinity, all of which were resolved through enforcement action. The most recent building maintenance work on record is from 2013, suggesting that no major structural or systems improvements have been necessary in the past decade, though this does not necessarily indicate any current deficiencies.

Risk rating

How 1409-1411 12Th 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
