Initial analysis

The property at 1304-1306 Valencia Street is a mixed-use, three-story building constructed in 1900, containing two residential units and one commercial space with a planned fourth residential unit addition. The building underwent significant development activity starting in 2022, with an issued permit for extensive remodeling including ground and second-level improvements, a rear addition, and new residential unit construction estimated at over $1.7 million. This construction work followed a fire incident in 2021 that affected the ground floor commercial space, which was documented through multiple complaints regarding fire debris cleanup, though the owners did complete the necessary fire debris removal permit work valued at $75,000 in early 2022. The project has required subsequent administrative permits to correct occupancy classification codes, with the most recent filings in November 2024.

The property has a documented history of various maintenance and upgrade work, including a 400-amp electrical service upgrade in 2003 and multiple plumbing and electrical improvements in the 2000s, such as a gas fireplace installation in 2017. Recent years have seen several tenant concerns regarding construction noise in 2022, which was documented through a building complaint. The building's maintenance history includes a 2008 reroofing project that was completed successfully. More recently, there have been multiple street cleaning and waste management issues recorded through 311 calls in 2023-2024, primarily related to general cleaning needs around the property, though these do not directly reflect on the building's internal conditions. The ongoing construction and improvements suggest active property management, though the 2021 fire incident and subsequent disruption during 2022 construction period represent notable past events that may have affected tenant experience.

Risk rating

How 1304-1306 Valencia 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.
