Initial analysis

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 102-108 Alta Street in Telegraph Hill, owned by Wilbur Family Revoc Inter V, has undergone several significant maintenance and renovation projects since its construction in 1972. The most recent major building improvement occurred in 2013 with the complete reroofing project costing $10,300, which included the installation of Class A fire-rated composition shingles. The property has a history of bathroom renovations, most notably in 2011-2012 when work was completed in Apartment #3, including plumbing updates, electrical rewiring, and installation of a new shower. Multiple routine housing inspections were conducted in the 1999-2010 period, with no active violations noted. The building's infrastructure has experienced some challenges, including a sewage backup incident in February 2022 that was promptly resolved, and there were historical issues with tree roots affecting neighboring foundations and water damage to adjacent structures in the early 2000s.

The property has maintained compliance with regular housing inspections, and while there have been multiple reports of illegal parking in the vicinity during 2020, these are not directly related to the building's condition or management. Notably, a tenant buyout occurred in May 2023 involving two tenants and a payment of $49,000, which may indicate a transition in occupancy or management plans for the building. The building received a Variance approval for Coverage & Rear Yard requirements, suggesting some modification to standard zoning regulations to accommodate the property’s configuration or usage. The building records show consistent maintenance and updating of essential systems, particularly focusing on bathroom facilities and roofing, though some permits for earlier renovation attempts from the 1990s show as expired rather than completed.

Risk rating

How 102-108 Alta 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
81th percentile

Out of 684 buildings in this neighborhood, 130 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.

Neighborhood location

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

Building age

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

Construction spend, owner's portfolio

Estimated permit value across all of this owner's buildings.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 73.1%
Moderate concern 12.6%
Severe concern 14.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
