Initial analysis

The Hung Family Trust's property at 1720 Geneva Avenue is a three-story, multi-family residential building (duplex) constructed in 1900, located in the Crocker Amazon neighborhood. The building's recent improvements include the installation of an EV charger in December 2021, representing the property's only building or electrical permit on record in recent decades. The property's maintenance and incident history shows a pattern of street-related issues, particularly in 2021-2024, with three documented pavement defects (two in 2022 and one in 2021) and a graffiti incident in July 2024 that was addressed through official channels.

The property has experienced several infrastructure-related maintenance events since 2014, including street cleaning and garbage removal issues in 2015 (with multiple instances) and catch basin maintenance completed that same year. A flickering street light issue was resolved in March 2014. Prior to the recent EV charger installation, the building had no significant recorded improvements or permits in the past 37 years. Public health involvement was noted in February 2021 with a general complaint that was transferred to the Environmental Health division, though the specific nature and resolution of this incident are not detailed in the records.

Risk rating

How 1720 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.
