Initial analysis

The property at 1789 McKinnon Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Bayview neighborhood, constructed in 1924 and currently owned by SF Bayview LLC. The building's maintenance history includes several significant infrastructure upgrades, with a garage door installation completed in 2009 ($1,000), a 200-amp electrical service upgrade completed in early 2009, and a sewer line replacement completed in April 2008. However, the building is currently facing several concerning issues, most notably an active complaint filed in January 2025 regarding non-functioning windows and mold problems due to leaks, which has been designated as a Spanish-speaking case by Housing Inspection Services.

The property has experienced multiple sanitation and maintenance challenges in recent months, particularly during late 2024. Between November 2024 and January 2025, there were at least ten separate reports of garbage and debris issues in the vicinity of the property, with seven cases specifically involving loose debris or yard waste that required attention from the Department of Public Works. While most of these cases were resolved, their frequency suggests ongoing maintenance and sanitation challenges in the area surrounding the property. Additionally, there was a street space and sidewalk permit issued in 2008, though the specific purpose of this permit is not detailed in the records. A planning record from an unspecified date indicates a withdrawn proposal for auto wrecking on the property, but this appears to be unrelated to the current use of the building.

Risk rating

How 1789 Mckinnon 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.
