Initial analysis

The property at 1407 5th Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood. Built in 1924 and currently owned by Manfred & Sheila C Angstenb, this flats and duplex-style building has undergone several maintenance and improvement projects over the years. Most recently, in late 2014, the building received bathroom renovations including wall tile replacement and a shower faucet update in Unit A, with electrical work completed in the bathroom and bedroom in early 2015. The building has seen regular roof maintenance, with reroofing projects documented in 1993 and 2007, costing $6,500.

The recent history of the property shows several infrastructure updates including bathroom fixtures and electrical work, though there have been two fire department responses related to alarm activations in late 2023 - one for a carbon monoxide detector that turned out to have no CO present, and another for a smoke detector malfunction. The building's exterior areas have been maintained through regular street and sidewalk cleaning services, though there have been multiple reports of garbage, debris, and illegal postings in the vicinity between June 2024 and January 2025. Parking-related issues have been notable in the area, with several reports of illegal parking and blocked driveways, though enforcement officers were often unable to locate the offending vehicles. The property has maintained a residential use status throughout its documented history, with no major structural or safety violations recorded.

Risk rating

How 1407 5Th 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, 1075 are predicted to be safer.
