Initial analysis

2409 18th Avenue is a two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Parkside neighborhood, containing 6 units and built in 1950. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past decades, with the most recent major work performed in 2012 involving a comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodel in Apartment #2, including electrical and plumbing upgrades costing approximately $18,390. In 2007, substantial improvements were made to accommodate a dental office tenant, including seismic upgrades, new electrical service installation, and HVAC modifications, with the work totaling $180,000. Other significant earlier improvements include reroofing in 2003, earthquake damage repairs and bathroom remodeling in 1991, and code compliance improvements in 1987.

The building experienced a cluster of fire safety and gas utility-related violations in January 2001, including issues with fire extinguishers and gas shutoff tools/instructions, though these were all resolved by March 2001. Several routine housing inspections were conducted in 2001, 2007, and 2008, all of which were closed without active status. The property had a plumbing violation in 2005 regarding unauthorized bathroom sink installation, which was promptly resolved. Recent activity around the property includes multiple 311 calls in late 2024, primarily concerning sidewalk defects, garbage, and debris issues, with some reports still showing as open. Three minor fire-related incidents have been recorded at the property, all involving assistance calls with no civilian injuries reported.

Risk rating

How 2409 18Th 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

Out of 121 buildings in this neighborhood, 109 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Property class

The assessor's property-class code, which correlates with building type and the violation rates the model expects. This code is grouped with other less-common classes.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 48.1%
Moderate concern 32.8%
Severe concern 19.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
