Initial analysis

The 2-unit multi-family residential building at 25 Wawona Street in West Portal, owned by Jessie & Robert Roth Revoc, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1925. Most notably, in 2018-2019, a comprehensive bathroom remodel was completed on the second floor, including the installation of new plumbing fixtures, electrical work, and waterproofing. The building has received regular maintenance and upgrades, including a 2018 window replacement project (installing energy-efficient vinyl windows), a 2010 reroofing project, and historical repairs such as termite remediation in 1993 and kitchen facilities removal from the basement in 1990. The property has experienced multiple fire alarm activations since 2024, though all were unintentional with no fires or injuries reported.

Recent activity indicates ongoing maintenance and some safety concerns at the nearby 5 Lenox Way address, with various fire safety violations documented between 2019-2024, including issues with sprinkler systems, standpipes, emergency lighting, and evacuation plans, though most have been marked as abated. The property has seen recent tenant activity, with a $70,000 tenant buyout recorded in December 2024 at 1 Claremont Boulevard, though the building itself has no recorded buyouts. The building's exterior environment has experienced various urban challenges in early 2025, including reports of graffiti, sidewalk parking, and debris issues, all of which were addressed through normal city channels.

Risk rating

How 25 Wawona 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
79th percentile

Out of 24 buildings in this neighborhood, 5 are predicted to be safer.
