AI summary

The two-unit residential building at 850 Vallejo Street in North Beach, owned by the Lee Family Trust, is a two-story flats and duplex structure dating back to 1907. Over its documented history, the property has undergone several notable improvements and faced typical urban challenges. In the early 1990s, significant interior updates were completed, including a kitchen remodel followed by a revision to install a post stringer for the stairway, both of which were successfully completed. More recently, in 2016, a street space permit was issued, though this appears to be a minimal cost (just $1). The building's maintenance record shows some attention to infrastructure, with a reroofing project initiated in 1994, though this permit eventually expired.

The property has experienced typical urban neighborhood incidents, including three documented 311 calls between 2015 and 2021. These issues were relatively minor and primarily related to street conditions and parking—a parking enforcement call in 2021, a streetlight issue in 2017 that was determined to be outside PG&E's jurisdiction, and a customer callback to the Department of Public Works in 2015 that was resolved and returned to the Public Information Officer. The building's permit and incident history suggests regular but infrequent maintenance and typical urban neighborhood challenges, with no documented safety or habitability concerns.

Risk rating

How 850 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
81th percentile

Out of 362 buildings in this neighborhood, 69 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.

DBI complaints, owner's portfolio

Complaints 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.

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 77.2%
Moderate concern 15.5%
Severe concern 7.3%
