Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1457-1459 Oakdale Avenue in the Bayview neighborhood, owned by the Underwood Family Trust, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues since its construction in 1929. Most notably, there were multiple housing inspection violations filed in March 2019 regarding the lack of smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, along with broken glass door panes, though these violations were abated by April 2019. The property has documented problems with mold and pest infestation, as evidenced by complaints from 2019. The building has undergone several infrastructure improvements over the years, including a floor repair in 1990, an electrical system upgrade in 2004, and sewer repairs in 2010.

Recent issues in and around the property have included several plumbing and water-related complaints in late 2023, with the most recent being water quality concerns in October 2023. The building has also faced various exterior maintenance challenges, as indicated by 311 calls reporting peeling paint (January 2025), a missing side sewer vent cover (January 2025), and a damaged window or building due to tree maintenance (October 2024). Additional concerns have been documented regarding exterior infrastructure, including a collapsed sidewalk (November 2023) and curb defects (July 2024). While many of these issues have been resolved, both recent and historical records suggest ongoing maintenance requirements for the building and its immediate surroundings.

Risk rating

How 1457-1459 Oakdale 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.
