Initial analysis

The property at 1252 York Street is a two-unit, one-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood. Built in 1900 and classified as a Flats & Duplex building, it is currently owned by Carrasco Roman. The only building permit on record dates back to 1996, which involved repairs to the front access wooden stairs, though this permit has since expired.

The building's recent incident history shows recurring issues with sidewalk parking, particularly in 2018 when multiple reports were filed regarding vehicles obstructing the sidewalk, resulting in one issued citation while other incidents could not be verified or the offending vehicles could not be located. In 2022 and 2024, there were two instances of loose garbage on the street, though these were resolved with no findings upon inspection. The most recent parking enforcement complaint from June 2022 remains open as of now. While the sidewalk parking issues seem to have diminished since 2018, the property has experienced some ongoing street cleaning challenges, with the latest reported case occurring in April 2024.

Risk rating

How 1252 York 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.
