Initial analysis

The three-story mixed-use building at 1260-1264 Valencia Street in the Inner Mission, owned by Yim/mak Fmly Tr, was constructed in 1900 and contains 3 residential units plus commercial space. The property has undergone several notable improvements and faced various maintenance challenges over the years. Most recently, in April 2023, accessibility improvements were completed to comply with Ordinance 51-16, including the installation of an automatic door operator and resloping of the interior ramp, at a cost of $8,000. In 2022, there was a complaint about a vacant commercial storefront. The building had significant code violations in late 2007 through 2008 that required multiple notices of violation, including issues with windows, lighting, and unsafe wiring conditions, all of which were abated by September 2008. Earlier improvements included a reroofing project in 2000 costing $7,000, while a shed built without permit in 1995 and a routine housing inspection in 1999 are also on record.

Recent activity around the property (2024) includes multiple 311 calls reporting various street and sidewalk maintenance issues such as graffiti, debris, and a bicycle lane blockage, though these are primarily external to the building itself. The property underwent a significant administrative process in the 1990s-2000s, with planning records showing efforts to resubdivide the property into two lots corresponding to the two addresses, which received CEQA clearance and was approved. The building's history demonstrates regular maintenance and compliance efforts, with most recent works focusing on modernization and accessibility improvements, while previous major code violations have been resolved and are no longer active.

Risk rating

How 1260-1264 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.

Neighborhood percentile
