Initial analysis

The property at 621-623 Taraval Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Parkside neighborhood. Built in 1945, this flats and duplex structure has undergone several notable improvements over the years. Recently, in 2019, the gas house line extension was completed, representing the most recent major infrastructure upgrade. The building has seen various maintenance and improvement projects, including a kitchen remodel in 2004 (complete with new cabinets, sink, dishwasher, and electrical work), window replacements in 1998, and important seismic safety work in 1996 involving anchoring mudsills to concrete. Historical records indicate previous issues with dry rot (1983) and ground floor improvements (1987), though the latter project was cancelled.

The property has experienced three fire department responses, all of which resulted in no injuries or significant incidents: one for a person in distress, one for unintentional detector activation, and one for EMS assistance. Recent neighborhood activity around the building has included several requests for temporary moving-related parking spaces in 2013-2014 and multiple reports of damaged parking meters between 2013-2018, all of which were resolved. In 2022, there was a rent board-related mailing request, and most recently in 2023, there was a sidewalk inspection that resulted in no defects being found. The building's maintenance record shows regular upkeep, with the most recent permits indicating active management of the property's infrastructure needs. Multiple 311 calls regarding garbage and debris were filed in 2024, though these appear to be related to street conditions rather than the building itself. Two planning records show attempted residential-to-commercial conversion applications that were ultimately disapproved.

Risk rating

How 621-623 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 121 buildings in this neighborhood, 56 are predicted to be safer.
