Initial analysis

1523 10th Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood. Built in 1926, the property is currently owned by Nabiha Shatara Dabit 2016 R. The building's documented history includes one completed roofing project from 1996, though no other major improvements or renovations are on record.

The property has experienced several concerning incidents in recent years, most notably a complaint filed in May 2023 regarding an allegedly illegal unit constructed in the garage area, which had reportedly been rented out for years. This complaint was filed with Housing Inspection Services and remains in a not-active status. The building has also been the subject of multiple construction-related complaints in 2018 and 2019, including noise violations and concerns about work starting before allowed hours, though these issues were eventually closed by the Building Inspection Division. More recently, there has been a pattern of parking enforcement issues documented between July 1-15, 2023, involving multiple reports of vehicles either parking on the sidewalk or blocking driveways, with varying outcomes in terms of enforcement response. An open pavement defect report from August 2019 remains unresolved on city records. While these incidents don't necessarily indicate ongoing problems, they reflect a history of code compliance concerns and neighborhood impact issues that have required official intervention.

Risk rating

How 1523 10Th 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.
