Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 470 Monterey Boulevard in the Sunnyside neighborhood, owned by Lew Jimmy & Kathy J Revoc T, is a two-story flat/duplex property constructed in 1965. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, including two complete roof replacements (one in 1997 and another in 2021 costing $15,000), sewer line replacement in 2008, and a ground floor partition and toilet compartment addition in 1995. In August 2023, there was a building complaint lodged regarding unauthorized work and debris removal by what appeared to be contractors, though this complaint was resolved within a day of filing.

The property has experienced recurring parking-related issues in recent months, with multiple 311 calls between May and October 2023 regarding vehicles blocking driveways and parking on sidewalks. There were eight parking enforcement calls during this period, with varying degrees of resolution, though in many cases, officers were unable to locate the offending vehicles. Additionally, there were two reports of abandoned vehicles in July 2023 that were resolved when the vehicles were no longer present. Historical permits show the building had street space and sidewalk repair work done in 2008, and in 1983, there was work completed to bring the building into compliance with certain code requirements. In 2024, there were two separate reports of blocked driveways, indicating that parking challenges in the area continue to be a concern for residents.

Risk rating

How 470 Monterey Blvd'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
