Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 512-514 Taraval Street in San Francisco's Inner Parkside neighborhood is a two-story flats/duplex structure constructed in 1945, currently owned by Darryl Yee and Riye Tobase. The building's maintenance history includes a reroofing project completed in 1990, and more recently, water service repairs conducted in September 2014. The property has experienced a significant number of parking enforcement issues, particularly during 2022, with multiple citations issued for driveway blocking incidents. Between February and July 2022, there were at least eight documented cases of vehicles blocking the driveway, with citations issued in several instances, though some cases could not be verified due to incomplete reporting information.

The building also experienced some infrastructure challenges in early 2022, with two sewer-related incidents reported in January and February, including flooding issues that required attention from the PUC Sewer Operations team. While the building has had its share of maintenance issues and parking enforcement challenges, there have been no documented safety violations or major structural problems in recent years. The property's permit history suggests regular attention to necessary repairs, with the most recent significant work being the water service repairs in 2014.

Risk rating

How 512-514 Taraval St'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.
