Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 776 14th Street in Duboce Triangle, owned by Gary L Holloway Lvg Tr, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900. The property is currently undergoing significant modifications, with the most substantial being the legalization of a ground floor ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) with associated fire department access improvements, for which a permit was issued on December 29, 2023 with an estimated cost of $144,000. This follows a proper procedure under California government code section 65852.2. The building has experienced several maintenance issues, most notably in January 2023 when multiple violations were documented and subsequently resolved by February 23, 2023, including problems with windows, walls, ceilings, water penetration, and a malfunctioning dryer. These violations were handled through the Housing Inspection Services division. The structure has undergone various improvements over the years, including plumbing work in March 2023 (toilet replacement and faucet installation), bathroom renovations in 2021, and stair repairs in 2019. A sewer line replacement was completed in 2011. Historical records indicate a foundation concern was briefly raised in 2006 but was resolved quickly. The property has experienced two smoke detector activations (one malfunction and one unintentional) with no civilian injuries reported. More recent issues have primarily involved parking enforcement matters, with multiple complaints about driveway blocking between 2022 and 2024, including several citations issued.

Risk rating

How 776 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.
