Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 935 Meade Ave in Bayview Heights, owned by He Quan & Zhong Yan, is a 1924 flats and duplex structure that has undergone several significant modifications and faced various regulatory challenges over the years. Major renovations were completed in 2004, including comprehensive kitchen and bathroom updates across both units, window replacements, and heating improvements, though these works were initially performed without proper permits, leading to multiple code enforcement violations filed between May and August 2004 regarding unpermitted construction of two kitchens, bathrooms, window installations, and wall heaters. The property faced another serious issue in November 2015 when there were complaints about inoperable heating systems and gas odors, resulting in violations for inadequate heat provision and missing carbon monoxide/smoke detectors; these violations were eventually abated by November 23, 2015.

More recent work includes a house trap replacement in July 2022, and the installation of new kitchen electrical systems in 2005. The building's maintenance history shows attention to basic infrastructure, with a roof replacement completed in 1996. While there have been multiple graffiti and public space maintenance issues reported in 2024, these are mostly related to street areas around the property rather than the building itself. The property has faced minimal fire safety issues, with no merit found in complaints related to roof access and weeds/grass in 2009. The building's historical permit records show a pattern of significant renovations and some regulatory challenges regarding permit compliance, though most recent violations have been resolved.

Risk rating

How 935 Meade Ave'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

Out of 54 buildings in this neighborhood, 14 are predicted to be safer.
