Initial analysis

The property at 1535 10th Avenue in the Inner Sunset is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1909, currently owned by Anthony A. Capili. The building has experienced significant maintenance and code compliance issues over its history, with a particularly problematic period occurring in 2008-2009 when multiple building violations and complaints were filed. During this time, serious concerns were documented regarding unauthorized unit modifications, including an illegal ground floor dwelling unit, an unauthorized roof deck, and various life safety hazards such as questionable fire-resistant materials, structural modifications, unapproved electrical and plumbing installations, and inadequate fire safety systems. Multiple housing code violations were also recorded, including water damage, mold issues, plumbing problems, and building surface deterioration. These violations were formally addressed and abated by November 2017 through various repair permits, including reroofing work completed in 2010.

More recent history shows ongoing maintenance attention, with recent repairs including sidewalk work (2001) and front stairway repairs (1989). The building has experienced recurring issues with water damage and leaks over the years, with complaints dating back to the 1990s. There has been one recorded fire incident, classified as a contained cooking fire with no civilian injuries. In 2022-2024, there have been multiple parking enforcement calls regarding driveway blocking, though these issues are not directly related to building conditions. While the building has had a history of maintenance challenges and code compliance issues, most recent violations appear to have been addressed and abated, with no active violations on record as of the latest available data.

Risk rating

How 1535 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.

Neighborhood percentile
74th percentile

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 388 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.

Neighborhood location

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

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 83.7%
Moderate concern 12.6%
Severe concern 3.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
