Initial analysis

The 2-story multi-family residential building at 29-31 Capp Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission district, owned by Kuang Fan Wang & Kam Fong C, was constructed in 1980 and contains three apartment units. The building had two significant safety-related incidents in September 2008 when housing inspectors found violations requiring immediate attention - specifically, the need to recharge fire extinguishers and to install seismic braces on the hot water heater. These violations were promptly addressed and abated within three weeks, by October 20, 2008.

Recent records show ongoing maintenance and environmental challenges in the immediate vicinity of the property during 2024, including multiple instances of graffiti removal, street cleaning for garbage and debris, and concerns about tree roots damaging the sidewalk (still open as of May 2024). There have been recent enforcement actions related to parking violations, with citations issued in March and addressed in May 2024. Previous routine housing inspections were conducted in July 2003, which were completed by September of the same year. While the building's structure itself appears to be currently violation-free, the surrounding area has experienced recurring issues with street cleanliness and maintenance that may impact resident experience.

Risk rating

How 29-31 Capp 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
