Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1515-1517 25th Avenue in the Central Sunset neighborhood, owned by Luis H Pine & Teresa A Butl, has undergone several significant renovations since its construction in 1939. The most substantial improvements occurred between 2005-2007, including a $25,000 garage conversion project that added a bedroom, bathroom, and storage space with interior stairs, along with comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodels in both units and electrical system upgrades costing $20,000. In 2018, a gas house line extension was completed, and there is a recent street space permit from 2019. The building has experienced some maintenance issues, most notably a 2014 complaint regarding mold around windows in the dining room, living room, and downstairs bedroom, linked to previous leaks, though this complaint is no longer active. The property has undergone various system upgrades, including the installation of new furnaces, a tankless water heater, and a complete reroofing in 2001.

Recent activity at the property has primarily involved external issues, with multiple parking-related complaints recorded between June and December 2024, including reports of vehicles blocking driveways and parking on sidewalks. While these parking violations have been addressed by enforcement officers, they suggest an ongoing challenge with parking management in the area. The most recent building-maintenance-related activity on record is from 2018, with no significant building issues reported in the past five years.

Risk rating

How 1515-1517 25Th 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.
