Initial analysis

The 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 2015 19th Avenue in Parkside, owned by Yuen Fmly Tr, has experienced several noteworthy events since its construction in 1958. Most significantly, there are two active issues as of 2023 from combined inspections in 2013-2024: one concerning lead paint hazards and damaged/peeling exterior paint, and another regarding building access for inspections. The property has undergone some maintenance work, including reroofing in 1992 and exterior painting in 2013, though the latter was related to a violation regarding building maintenance. A 2020 complaint alleged an unauthorized dental business operating from a second-floor apartment, and in 2023-2024, there have been multiple parking-related enforcement actions near the property, including several citations for blocking driveways and parking on sidewalks, though these are not directly related to building conditions or safety.

The building's violation history shows most citations have been resolved or abated, with past issues including security concerns (self-closing gates), fire safety (fire extinguisher requirements), and gas meter documentation, all from 2001. There were two documented fire-related incidents: one in 2018 regarding alarm systems that was promptly corrected, and a 2024 complaint that was found to have no merit. While these historical issues suggest periodic maintenance and regulatory compliance needs, most concerns appear to have been addressed through proper channels. Recent focus has shifted primarily to parking enforcement matters in the vicinity, which while numerous, relate more to street use than building condition or safety.

Risk rating

How 2015 19Th 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
19th percentile

Out of 255 buildings in this neighborhood, 207 are predicted to be safer.
