Initial analysis

The property at 1907-1909 Grant Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in Telegraph Hill, constructed in 1906 and currently owned by Lorraine M Mccutcheon since 1998. The building's maintenance record shows one significant improvement from 2005, when a reroofing project valued at $3,800 was completed. The property's recent incident history from 2022 through 2025 reveals several nuisance issues, most notably a pattern of parking enforcement calls regarding blocked driveways, with at least four documented instances between 2022-2025, three of which resulted in citations. The building's immediate surroundings have experienced various maintenance and public health concerns, including reports of human or animal waste on the street, graffiti on public property, and an ongoing issue with a damaged (fallen) tree as of January 2023. While these incidents primarily affect public spaces rather than the building itself, they do reflect on the general maintenance of the area. The most recent documented issue is an open case regarding graffiti on a pole from January 2025, marking the most current concern associated with the property's vicinity.

Risk rating

How 1907-1909 Grant 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
99th percentile

Out of 684 buildings in this neighborhood, 7 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.

Building age

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

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 89.9%
Moderate concern 5.0%
Severe concern 5.1%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
