Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1946-1948 Stockton Street in Telegraph Hill, owned by the Thoresen Foundation, has undergone significant renovations and improvements since its construction in 1908. The most substantial work occurred between 2012-2015, including a major 2012-2013 renovation of Unit #1 featuring new master bathroom and closet, kitchen and bathroom remodeling, spiral stairs installation, foundation upgrades, and electrical and plumbing improvements totaling approximately $190,000. The property received comprehensive updates in 2013, with kitchen and bathroom remodels in both units, electrical system upgrades, and the installation of energy-efficient lighting. Two new furnaces were installed in February 2015, completing the major system upgrades.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural and safety improvements, with permits for electrical rewiring, window replacements, and reroofing work, although some older permits from 1995 and 2003 show as expired without records of completion. The property has experienced typical urban challenges, as evidenced by 311 calls between 2016-2024 primarily related to street and sidewalk issues, including garbage, debris, and parking enforcement matters. The most recent incident involved human waste or urine in November 2024. While there have been several reports of abandoned vehicles near the property between 2014-2015, all were resolved with vehicles being gone upon inspection. The building's recent permit and improvement history suggests a well-maintained property with significant investment in modernization and safety systems over the past decade.

Risk rating

How 1946-1948 Stockton 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.

Neighborhood percentile
88th percentile

Out of 684 buildings in this neighborhood, 82 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 91.5%
Moderate concern 5.3%
Severe concern 3.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
