Initial analysis

The property at 1108-1112 Taraval Street is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building with ground-floor commercial space, constructed in 1922 and currently owned by the Kwan Paul & Jane Revocable Trust. The building underwent significant renovations in 2019, including a conversion of ground floor office space to a beauty salon with new procedure rooms and a service counter, accompanied by comprehensive updates to the plumbing, electrical systems, and restroom facilities. The electrical upgrade included replacing old wiring, installing new lighting, switches, receptacles, and smoke detectors, while plumbing improvements included new handicapped facilities and water heating equipment. Prior to these improvements, the building faced several violations in 2018 related to lead paint hazards, which were resolved by August 2018 when the exterior painting work was completed. Historical complaints include a heating system issue in 2014 and unauthorized use changes reported in 2001, both of which were subsequently addressed.

Recent and ongoing issues primarily pertain to exterior maintenance, with multiple reports in December 2024 and January 2025 regarding garbage, debris, and sidewalk conditions near the property. There have been several instances of overflowing city garbage cans and abandoned items on the sidewalk, though most of these cases have been resolved through Recology services. Additionally, two parking enforcement requests were made in November 2024 regarding sidewalk parking violations, but officers were unable to locate the offending vehicles. A single fire-related incident involving a person in distress was recorded, with no civilian injuries reported. The building's systems were notably upgraded in 2019 with the installation of a new furnace and the conversion of underground electrical service with 200A service and three meters.

Risk rating

How 1108-1112 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.
