Initial analysis

The property at 1671-1673 45th Avenue in San Francisco's Outer Sunset neighborhood is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Nijem Saed. The building has undergone significant recent renovations, with major work starting in late 2023 including bedroom additions, kitchen expansions, and bathroom reconfigurations on various floors, as well as comprehensive remodeling of four bathrooms and two kitchens, electrical updates, and new windows. In 2024, the building is scheduled to receive a new photovoltaic solar system (4 kW) and new furnaces and water heaters for both units. Earlier improvements included foundation replacement in 2023 and various facade and window upgrades.

The building has a documented history of electrical and maintenance issues, particularly in late 2016 when tenants reported extended power outages resulting in generator use, and multiple housing code violations related to electrical service, hazardous wiring, and general maintenance. These violations were officially abated in 2018, along with various fire code violations. More recent work has focused on upgrading building systems and amenities, including plumbing, electrical systems, and environmental improvements such as solar power installation. A current active complaint from November 2024 claims that a previously issued building permit was granted in error due to an invalid design engineer. The property has had periodic maintenance and infrastructure issues over the years, but recent permits and improvements suggest significant investment in building systems and tenant amenities.

Risk rating

How 1671-1673 45Th 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
99th percentile

Out of 632 buildings in this neighborhood, 6 are predicted to be safer.
