Initial analysis

The 6-unit, 2-story apartment building at 1450 7th Ave in the Inner Sunset, built in 1949 and currently owned by the Rose Koslowski Survivors Trust, has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, particularly concerning safety and maintenance. Most notably, from 2022 to 2023, multiple apartments received upgraded egress windows, including Units #3, #5, and #6, demonstrating ongoing compliance with safety regulations. The building has a documented history of roof maintenance, with reroofing work completed in 1995 and again in 2016 costing $11,500, though there were some concerning reports of roof leaks between 1997-1998.

The property has experienced several maintenance challenges over its history, particularly evident in a cluster of violations from December 2004 that included issues with heating systems, interior surfaces, security requirements, and egress obstructions, though these were subsequently abated. Earlier documented problems from 1997 included plumbing issues with bathtub and kitchen sink backups in multiple units, along with concerns about paint conditions and wall cracks. More recent history shows relatively few violations or complaints, with only routine inspections recorded in 2010 and 2017. The building's fire safety record shows several false alarms related to malfunctioning smoke detectors and alarm systems, with no civilian injuries reported. Recent 311 calls from 2024 primarily concerned exterior issues such as sidewalk defects and garbage debris, though these appear to be mostly routine urban maintenance matters rather than building-specific problems.

Risk rating

How 1450 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

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 956 are predicted to be safer.
