Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 456-458 Greenwich Street in Telegraph Hill, owned by Michael L. Ditzler, is a two-story flats/duplex structure built in 1906. The building's maintenance history shows several significant repairs and upgrades over the years, with the most recent major work being the replacement of a gas water heater in October 2021. In 2012, four street-visible windows were replaced at a cost of $4,500. Earlier improvements include a kitchen remodel with electrical upgrade and plaster repairs in 1992, followed by a revision for posts and beams in the kitchen that same year. Two permits from 1997 related to the garage area - one for reroofing and another for installing a concrete retaining wall - are no longer active.

The property has experienced some infrastructure challenges, including a sewage backup issue in January 2013 that required intervention from PUC Sewer Operations. The building has had minimal safety incidents on record, with only one false fire alarm recorded with no civilian injuries. Recent parking-related issues have been the most frequent concerns, with multiple citations for driveway blocking in 2021 and 2023. Additionally, there have been a few neighborhood-related incidents recorded through 311 calls, including concerns about homelessness (2019), an abandoned vehicle incident (2018), and some damaged benches on the sidewalk (2016), though these were primarily exterior to the building itself and were either unable to be located or determined not to be relevant to the property address.

Risk rating

How 456-458 Greenwich 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
91th percentile

Out of 684 buildings in this neighborhood, 62 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 permits, owner's portfolio

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

Building age

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

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 90.0%
Moderate concern 5.8%
Severe concern 4.2%
