Initial analysis

The three-story, 8-unit multi-family residential building at 12-22 Edith Street in Telegraph Hill, owned by the Archdiocese of San Francisco & Scholae J, has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects since its construction in 1907. Most recently, the building has had multiple water heater replacements in 2024, suggesting ongoing systems maintenance. A notable infrastructure improvement was completed in 2019 with the repair of a cracked and leaning yard retaining wall, costing $25,000 to rectify a safety concern related to the public right-of-way. The building has seen consistent attention to its basic systems, with records showing three water heater replacements and a sewer repair in 2016, as well as various heating system updates between 2012-2013, including furnace and space heater replacements.

The property experienced a cluster of violations in 2005 related to safety and maintenance issues, including concerns about emergency exits, smoke detectors, gas utility shutoffs, and stair repairs, though all were abated by July 2006. Subsequent years have shown regular maintenance activity, including the addition of a third-floor bathroom in 2015 with associated plumbing and electrical work. Historical records reveal multiple roofing projects between 1990-2005, indicating ongoing commitment to building maintenance. More recently, there have been several reports of garbage and debris issues in 2024 near the property, though these have been promptly resolved by city services. The building has also had two fire-related incidents, both without civilian injuries, involving smoke removal and a false alarm. The most recent routine inspection-related activity occurred in 2010, with no active violations or complaints on record since 2006.

Risk rating

How 12-22 Edith 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

Out of 684 buildings in this neighborhood, 588 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Neighborhood location

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 35.4%
Moderate concern 42.5%
Severe concern 22.1%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
