Initial analysis

The two-story multi-family residential building at 1670 Revere Ave in the Bayview neighborhood, built in 1973, contains three units and is owned by James F Blanding 2016 Marit. The property has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the years, with the most recent concern being an active complaint from May 2023 regarding an allegedly converted commercial space into an unauthorized residential unit. In 2010, the building faced multiple violations including water damage, ceiling repairs, and inadequate heating systems, all of which were abated by June 2010. Subsequent issues included rotting stairs in 2011 (resolved in 2012), window frame disrepair in 2012, and an electrical permit for exterior light installation in 2007.

The building has undergone various improvements, including a reroofing project in 2010 costing $8,000, and repairs to stairs and landing in 2011-2012. While many historical complaints were resolved, including a 1997 complaint regarding maintenance issues, the property continues to experience periodic maintenance challenges. Recent maintenance history from 2023-2024 primarily consists of exterior and common area concerns, including multiple street cleaning requests and parking enforcement calls, though these are not directly related to the building's condition or habitability. Two fire-related complaints were recorded in November 2010, with one being corrected immediately and the other referred to another agency.

Risk rating

How 1670 Revere 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.
