Initial analysis

The two-story multi-family residential building at 1766 Newcomb Avenue in the Bayview neighborhood, owned by Ly Nhuan & Yuan My Quyen, was constructed in 1933 and contains three units. The building's permit history shows a significant electrical upgrade in 2005, with the installation of a 200-amp underground conversion and three subpanels, which was properly completed. A potentially concerning building complaint was filed in April 2009 regarding unauthorized construction work on a back deck, involving enclosure and roofing without permits, though this complaint is currently listed as not active.

Recent property and neighborhood conditions show ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly in 2024, with multiple reports (four in July and one in August) concerning garbage and debris on or near the property, including hazardous waste and loose garbage. The surrounding area has experienced some tree-related issues, with reports in 2023 of a tree damaging property by hitting a window or building, and a damaged/vandalized tree report from August 2022. The property has also encountered some parking enforcement issues, with two complaints in April 2023 regarding driveway blocking by a gray Nissan Altima, though one of these incidents could not be verified by responding officers. Earlier maintenance matters include general cleaning concerns in May and October 2022, though all reported issues have been marked as resolved.

Risk rating

How 1766 Newcomb 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.
