Initial analysis

The 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1547 9th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood was constructed in 1973 and is currently owned by Kiyohara Irrevoc Property T. The building has undergone two significant roofing projects in its history, with the most recent reroofing permit issued in February 2023 at a cost of $19,300, following a previous reroofing completed in 1997.

The building has experienced several notable safety and maintenance events over its history. Two routine housing inspections were conducted, in 2001 and 2010, revealing multiple fire safety and security violations that were subsequently resolved. The 2001 inspection identified issues requiring the removal of combustible storage or installation of automatic fire sprinklers, along with requirements to tag and recharge fire extinguishers. The 2010 inspection focused on security improvements, including the installation of self-closing devices at exterior doors and deadlatch locks with minimum 1/2" throw at exit doors. Recent infrastructure work includes the 2023 reroofing project and a focus on addressing pavement defects near the property, with various city services responding to multiple reports of pavement issues in 2022 and 2024.

Risk rating

How 1547 9Th 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.
