Initial analysis

The property at 1462 12th Ave in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1924, currently owned by Tommy C Y & Jackie Tang Rev. The building's most significant recent mechanical update occurred in December 2016, when a sub-panel replacement was completed following a building violation filed the same month regarding inadequate electrical service capacity. This violation was officially abated by January 26, 2017, suggesting the matter was resolved through proper remediation.

The property has experienced recurring issues with parking violations in the immediate vicinity, particularly involving sidewalk parking. Between 2018 and 2024, there were multiple documented incidents of vehicles parking on sidewalks, with citations issued in some cases (most recently in December 2023 and September 2024). Driveway blocking incidents were also recorded, with citations being issued to offending vehicles. Street maintenance and cleanliness concerns have been minimal but present, with a few reports of garbage issues on the street, including an overflowing city garbage can in 2020 and general cleaning needs in 2023. An abandoned vehicle complaint from July 2016 was addressed promptly, resulting in the vehicle's removal within 72 hours. While the building has had its share of neighborhood challenges, these primarily relate to street and parking issues rather than concerns with the building's structure or systems, which appear to have been properly maintained following the 2016 electrical updates.

Risk rating

How 1462 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
