Initial analysis

The 5-unit multi-family residential building at 944-948 Vallejo Street in Russian Hill, owned by Eleanor Projects LLC, has undergone numerous significant improvements since 2015. Most recently, in July 2023, a fire violation was issued for blocked exits, though this has since been marked as abated. The building has seen substantial interior remodeling work over the past several years, including multiple bathroom renovations (2021-2022), kitchen modifications (2016-2017), and addition of new amenities such as wet bars and half baths, with associated plumbing and electrical work. Major infrastructure improvements have been implemented, including the installation of new windows, updated HVAC systems, and laundry facilities, with corresponding electrical upgrades to support new appliances and safety features such as smoke detectors.

The property has a history of unauthorized remodeling activity, as evidenced by multiple complaints in 2014 regarding work done without permits, though these issues were resolved in early 2015. Earlier building improvements include a deck waterproofing project in 2015, concrete work and window installations in 2016, and comprehensive kitchen and bathroom renovations in 2017. The building's maintenance record shows regular attention to basic systems, including water heater and washer/dryer installations in 2016. While the building has undergone extensive renovations and improvements, the recent fire violation regarding blocked exits suggests ongoing attention to safety compliance is necessary.

Risk rating

How 944-948 Vallejo 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, 227 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.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Building age

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 58.3%
Moderate concern 19.3%
Severe concern 22.4%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
