Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 428 14th St in Mission Dolores is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1923, currently owned by Lee Dexter & Michael M K & Wil. The building's documented history shows primarily maintenance and enforcement issues over the past several years. The most significant documented structural work was a reroofing project completed in 1996, though that permit has since expired. Recent chronic issues in the vicinity primarily revolve around parking enforcement, with multiple reports of driveway blocking between 2022 and 2024, though responding officers were often unable to locate the offending vehicles.

The property has experienced several maintenance and public safety incidents, including the removal of two missing side sewer vent covers in September 2022 and recurring issues with loose garbage and debris that required multiple clean-up interventions by Recology and Street and Environmental Services between 2022 and 2024. Two parking-related signage defacement incidents occurred in January 2024, though these were resolved through the normal regulatory process. While the building itself appears to have had minimal recent structural issues, the surrounding area has experienced persistent challenges with parking management and street cleanliness, particularly evident in the clustering of reports for various street cleaning and debris issues in 2023 and 2024.

Risk rating

How 428 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.
