Initial analysis

The 5-unit, 3-story apartment building at 1000 Geneva Avenue in the Crocker Amazon neighborhood, owned by Patricia Ann Britton Rev In, has undergone significant maintenance and improvements since its construction in 1951. Recent work has focused on addressing building violations from 2023, including window replacements required to comply with multiple Notices of Violation (NOVs) totaling approximately $40,000, and general building repairs. Notable recent improvements include a kitchen remodel in September 2023 ($30,000), complete roof replacement in 2022 ($15,000), and restoration work following a 2022 car accident that damaged brickwork and stucco ($2,500). The building has experienced water-related issues, with complaints filed in 2023 regarding water intrusion, mold, and window problems, though these violations were officially abated in June 2024.

The property's maintenance history includes the installation of a ground floor laundromat in 2012 (complete with electrical upgrades), plumbing work including building trap replacement in 2018, and various window and roofing repairs. Previous violations dating back to 2001 included multiple fire safety and interior surface issues, all of which have since been resolved. The building has experienced some infrastructure challenges over the years, including exterior ductwork issues in 2017, multiple plumbing repairs (including sewer line connections in 2015), and periodic garbage and debris concerns as evidenced by recent 311 calls. All current building permits are either completed or actively in progress, with the most recent permit focusing on window replacement work visible from the public right of way.

Risk rating

How 1000 Geneva 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

Out of 119 buildings in this neighborhood, 108 are predicted to be safer.
