AI summary

The property at 1731-1733 Mason Street in Russian Hill is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1908, classified as a Flats & Duplex building. The current recorded owner is Bassett-maker 2005 Family T. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past few decades, with the most recent major work occurring in 2010, which included the removal of two closets and a non-bearing wall to create an open office space, along with the replacement of two furnaces and associated flue work. That same year, electrical upgrades were made with the installation of three new outlets and one new switch.

Prior to these updates, the building underwent a complete reroofing in 2008 at a cost of $12,000. Historical permit records from the late 1990s show attempts to address structural elements, including stair and deck modifications, though some of these permits expired without completion. The most recent incident related to the property was recorded in March 2022, involving an open service request to SFMTA regarding scooter-related mobility services, though this is not directly related to the building's condition or maintenance. In summary, the building's recent history shows regular maintenance and updating of essential systems, particularly in 2010 when multiple improvements were made to both the interior and infrastructure.

Risk rating

How 1731-1733 Mason 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 1133 buildings in this neighborhood, 170 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 83.2%
Moderate concern 10.8%
Severe concern 6.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
