Initial analysis

The property at 1069-1071 14th Street (also known as 2 Roosevelt Way) is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1912 in the Buena Vista Park neighborhood, currently owned by the Tracy T Tran Revocable Trust. The most significant recent work includes a 2021 renovation of the top floor unit (1071 14th Street) valued at $210,000, involving interior remodeling, window replacement, and solar panel installation, along with a plumbing upgrade in 2022 that included house trap replacement. In 2021, there was an attempted permit application for adding an accessory dwelling unit with a sprinkler system to the ground floor, though this permit was withdrawn.

The building has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over its history, most notably in 2022 when there were documented problems with a malfunctioning drain that was initially reported as creating sewage odors in the courtyard. The building also had a series of violations in 2002-2004 related to fire safety and building maintenance, including issues with stairs, garbage storage, and fire extinguisher requirements, though these were all eventually abated. A more recent complaint from April 2022 reported lack of hot water, and there was a fire-related complaint in 2021 that was found to have no merit. Infrastructure maintenance has included addressing dry rot issues in the deck structure in 2011, as well as various building system upgrades such as the installation of new service equipment and common area metering in 2008. The property has undergone routine housing inspections over the years, with the most recent records indicating several open issues including sidewalk maintenance needs and graffiti concerns as of 2024-2025.

Risk rating

How 1069-1071 14Th 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.
