Initial analysis

The property at 1458-1460 12th Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Inner Sunset neighborhood, owned by Martin V Murphy Jr and constructed in 1924. The building's maintenance history shows several significant infrastructure updates, including a water heater replacement in 2007 and a roofing project in 2009, with an older re-roofing permit from 1989 on record as expired. Two street space and sidewalk permits were issued in May 2004, though their specific purpose was not detailed in the records.

The most notable recent issues have been related to parking violations, with multiple incidents of driveway blocking documented through parking enforcement calls between 2018 and 2024. A total of eight such incidents were reported, with seven resulting in citations being issued. There was also one incident of sidewalk parking in September 2021 that resulted in a citation. The only recorded fire-related incident was an unintentional alarm system activation with no actual fire or civilian injuries. All parking enforcement requests were responded to, though in three instances (most recently in 2024) officers were unable to locate the offending vehicles. The building's documented history shows regular maintenance activities appropriate for its age, with no recorded violations or safety incidents beyond the parking-related issues.

Risk rating

How 1458-1460 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

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 179 are predicted to be safer.
