Initial analysis

The two-story multi-family residential building at 631-633 Taraval Street, located in the Inner Parkside neighborhood, was constructed in 1925 and contains seven units. The property underwent significant modifications in 2018 when the ground floor commercial space was converted from office usage to a daycare center, a project valued at $60,000. This transformation included interior demolition, wall construction, and improvements to accessibility with ADA-compliant sinks. During this period, the building's fire safety systems received substantial upgrades, including the installation of new smoke detectors, horn strobes, and a weatherproof outside horn strobe, followed by additional fire alarm system modifications. The ground floor improvements prompted occupancy class changes and related modifications, with all work being completed successfully.

Recent records from 2020 to 2024 show the building has maintained regular inspections and necessary adjustments, including a change of address processing in 2019 and various maintenance activities. The property has experienced typical urban challenges, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls regarding street cleaning, illegal postings, and graffiti between 2014 and 2024, though these do not directly impact building conditions. Most recent issues concern a curb defect reported in September 2024 (still open), while the building's immediate premises have not shown any significant maintenance or safety concerns in recent years. The property's management under Raymond Yang appears to have maintained compliance with necessary upgrades and modifications, particularly regarding commercial space conversions and fire safety improvements.

Risk rating

How 631-633 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, 119 are predicted to be safer.

Number of units

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