Initial analysis

407 Athens Street is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Excelsior neighborhood. Built in 1977 and currently owned by Knezevich Athens LLC, the property has undergone some notable maintenance work, including a $10,500 reroofing project completed in 2016. The building has a lengthy history of routine inspections and compliance issues, particularly in the early 2000s, when multiple violations were documented related to fire safety and egress systems, including blocked fire escapes, improper storage of combustible materials, and issues with fire extinguishers and smoke detectors. These violations were addressed and abated by December 2000.

In the years that followed, the property underwent several routine inspections in 2004, 2006, 2007, and 2011, focusing on various maintenance and safety requirements. A notable incident occurred in 2011 regarding a rear door repair that was subsequently addressed. The building has also generated multiple 311 calls in 2024-2025, primarily concerning parking issues in the vicinity, with several reports of sidewalk parking violations being documented and investigated, though most could not be validated by responding officers. Two fire-related complaints were filed in 2005 and 2009 regarding combustible materials and blocked exits, respectively, but both were determined to have no merit upon investigation. As of October 2023, there are no active violations or complaints on file, indicating that the building has maintained compliance with current safety standards in recent years.

Risk rating

How 407 Athens St'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.
