Initial analysis

The 15-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 1467 7th Avenue in the Inner Sunset, owned by Volpentest Living Trust, was constructed in 1964 and has a noteworthy history of fire safety system issues. The property has experienced recurring problems with its fire safety infrastructure, including multiple complaints about alarm systems, sprinkler/standpipe systems, and extinguishers between 2017 and 2025, with several issues documented as "Condition Corrected" and one instance of a malfunctioning alarm system being recorded as a fire incident with no civilian injuries. A significant violation regarding exits/fire escapes was issued and subsequently abated in June 2020. The building's maintenance history includes an emergency fire panel repair in 2001 (status expired), reroofing work in 1998 (status expired), and a compliance improvement in 1985 (completed).

Recent activity around the building has been relatively minor, with the most recent issues primarily involving parking and street cleaning. These include a parking-related complaint in July 2024 that was deemed invalid, a general cleaning issue in August 2023 that was resolved, and two parking violations involving a BMW X5 in June 2022, one of which resulted in a citation. Prior to these, there was a noise complaint in November 2019 and a temporary parking sign request for moving purposes in March 2018. While the building's fire safety system issues have shown some pattern of recurrence, most recent violations have been promptly addressed, as evidenced by the "Condition Corrected" status of many fire complaints. The property has maintained compliance with its building permits, though some records show as expired rather than completed.

Risk rating

How 1467 7Th 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
6th percentile

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 1403 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 units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building size

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

Neighborhood location

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 11.4%
Moderate concern 17.4%
Severe concern 71.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
