Initial analysis

The property at 1601 Revere Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Bayview neighborhood, owned by David Clements and constructed in 1907. The building has undergone significant recent improvements, most notably the addition of a 507-square-foot manufactured ADU in 2021-2022, including underground connections and a new fire sprinkler system completed in July 2023. In 2019-2020, the building addressed several housing code violations related to maintenance and safety, including mold/mildew issues, egress obstruction, smoke and carbon monoxide detector requirements, and various plumbing and electrical concerns - all of which were officially abated by August 2020. The property has maintained active compliance through multiple recent permits, including an electrical panel upgrade with three meters installed in September 2022.

Recent records indicate ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly with garbage and debris management, as evidenced by numerous 311 calls throughout 2024. There was also a complaint filed in December 2024 regarding potentially unpermitted electrical work connected to the ADU, though this complaint was marked as not active. Additionally, there is a planning record from 2021 referring to the property that is currently "On Hold" with the Department of Public Works. The building's historical records show standard maintenance activities such as reroofing in 1988 and 2014, and exterior improvements in 1988, suggesting regular upkeep of the property over the years.

Risk rating

How 1601 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.

Neighborhood percentile
