Initial analysis

The property at 1167-1169 Valencia Street is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900 in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood, currently owned by Jafon T & Tracle Hakkinen. The building underwent significant renovations in 2010, including a major $100,000 project to provide ADA compliance, reconfigure kitchen and bathroom facilities, repair the rear deck, and upgrade windows throughout, followed by various electrical and plumbing improvements. Notably, there was a serious compliance issue in 2019-2021 when the second-floor unit was reportedly converted to host events with up to 40 guests through Peerspace.com, leading to a planning complaint investigation and subsequent reversion to a two-family dwelling status in 2019 at a cost of $50,000. More recent improvements in 2021 included the installation of a new hydronic fan coil system, kitchen and laundry facilities, and electrical upgrades, though these permits have since expired.

The building has experienced several maintenance and compliance issues over its history, including a sanitation violation in late 2008 that was promptly resolved. Recent 311 calls from 2022-2024 primarily concerned external issues not directly related to the building's condition, such as graffiti on parking meters, sidewalk cleaning needs, and street maintenance matters. A tenant buyout of three units was recorded in November 2020, and there have been multiple permit-based improvements to the property's infrastructure over the years, including substantial electrical and plumbing system upgrades. The property appears to have stabilized following the 2019-2021 compliance intervention, with no recent building complaints on record related to unauthorized unit modifications or commercial use.

Risk rating

How 1167-1169 Valencia 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.
