Initial analysis

The 66-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 500-532 Gonzalez Drive in Stonestown, owned by Parkmerced Owner LLC, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1942. Most notably, a substantial tenant improvement project was completed in 2015 at a cost of $300,000, which included the installation of glass partitions, flooring replacement, new lighting, and reconstruction of double-height spaces. The building has a documented history of recurring plumbing and water-related issues, with multiple tenant complaints between 2022-2024 reporting water leaks, flooding, and mold problems in various units. Recent maintenance includes a completed reroofing project from 2011 and ongoing attention to electrical systems, with the most recent related work involving lighting and electrical upgrades in 2025.

The property has experienced several safety and maintenance concerns over the years, including periodic fire safety violations and complaints. Most concerning in recent months was a December 2023 violation regarding sleeping area requirements, though this was subsequently rescinded. Fire safety inspections have noted issues with extinguishers (2024, 2021), electrical systems (2024), and blocked exits (2024), though many of these were determined to have no merit or were corrected. The building's history includes multiple instances of lead paint notification requirements and security-related violations in 2000, all of which were abated. Recent tenant complaints have focused on water-related issues, with multiple reports of leaks, flooding, and plumbing problems between 2022 and 2024, as well as some reports of inadequate heating and bathroom maintenance concerns in 2017. A significant cluster of street space permits were issued in 2010, suggesting some exterior work or maintenance activity during that period.

Risk rating

How 500-532 Gonzalez Dr'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 31 buildings in this neighborhood, 16 are predicted to be safer.
