Initial analysis

The multi-family residential building at 566-568 Chestnut Street in North Beach is a two-story, four-unit structure built in 1927, currently owned by Deirdre J Coyne. The property has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, with the most substantial work occurring in 2019, including a comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodel ($48,751), electrical upgrades, and plumbing work that included installing a shower pan and a new housetrap. Prior improvements in 2018 involved exterior enhancements, including the replacement of upper-level stucco siding and windows on the front facade, valued at $30,000. Historical records show that the building underwent a legalization process in 1994, followed by various routine inspections, with most recent violations having been addressed and abated by June 2014.

Recent maintenance issues have primarily involved exterior concerns, with multiple 311 calls between 2022 and 2025 related to sidewalk cleaning and abandoned items. The property has experienced recurring concerns with parking enforcement, particularly regarding driveway blockages, with multiple citations issued between 2022 and 2024. While there were several building violations noted in 2006 and 2014 related to fire safety, smoke detection, and sanitation, all were addressed and abated. The building has undergone regular upkeep and modernization efforts, including a 2022 roof replacement permit, though this permit shows as expired in the records. A fire alarm system issue was reported in 2007 and resolved in early 2008. The most recent building maintenance actions have generally focused on ensuring compliance with safety regulations and maintaining the building's structural integrity, with no active violations recorded since 2014.

Risk rating

How 566-568 Chestnut 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.
