Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 14 Capitol Ave in the Oceanview neighborhood, owned by Traci Maywah Lee, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1906. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, including a complete reroofing in 2002 (cost: $7,443), a new water main installation for both 14 and 16 Capitol Ave in 2020, and a furnace replacement with new flue installation in 2013.

The building experienced two weed and grass-related fire complaints in 2007, both of which were promptly resolved by August of that year. More concerning, there is one documented gas leak incident on record, though no civilian injuries were reported. The most recent period has seen a notable increase in parking-related issues, with multiple 311 complaints filed between September 2024 and January 2025, including several reports of sidewalk parking and illegal parking, though many of these cases could not be validated by responding officers. While these parking issues don't directly affect the building's structure or systems, they do suggest potential challenges with on-street parking management in the immediate vicinity.

Risk rating

How 14 Capitol 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
25th percentile

Out of 79 buildings in this neighborhood, 59 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 54.4%
Moderate concern 22.4%
Severe concern 23.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
