Initial analysis

The property at 612-616 Taraval Street is a two-story, multi-family residential building constructed in 1939 in San Francisco's Inner Parkside neighborhood. Owned by Daniel Y & Connie S Hom Rev, this four-unit flat and store building has undergone several significant improvements over the past decades. Most notably, in 2020, a re-roofing project was completed at a cost of $12,500, and in 2012, the electrical service was upgraded to 200 amps. The building had some maintenance work performed in 2006, specifically addressing deteriorated deck members at the rear of the structure, though this was completed under a different address verification permit.

The property has experienced various maintenance and public safety issues in recent years, with the most pressing being an open sidewalk defect reported in August 2023. Other infrastructure-related concerns have included graffiti (2020), and multiple incidents of vehicles parking on sidewalks (2021-2021). The location's surroundings have seen regular urban maintenance issues such as garbage concerns, including an overflowing city garbage can (2020) and various forms of debris. While these external issues do not directly impact the building's integrity, they provide context about the immediate area. A building inspection complaint was logged in May 2020, though the outcome of this inspection is not detailed in the available records.

Risk rating

How 612-616 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.
