Initial analysis

The three-story, nine-unit multi-family residential building at 67 Fresno Street in Telegraph Hill, owned by San Francisco Bay Area Prop, has undergone several significant improvements and faced various challenges since its construction in 1907. Most recently, in 2024, the building has experienced concerning issues with resident comfort and safety, including reports of no heat and rodent problems in June 2024, along with multiple fire safety violations related to extinguishers and sprinkler systems, with the most recent violations issued in May and February 2024. The building underwent a seismic retrofit in 2017 to comply with San Francisco building codes, representing a significant structural improvement. Recent unit upgrades have included bathroom remodels in Units 2 (2024) and 7 (2022), with corresponding plumbing and electrical work showing ongoing maintenance and improvement efforts. Historical records indicate past challenges with building safety and habitability, including violations in 2000 regarding security and fire safety, and notable issues in 2005 concerning an unauthorized basement unit with multiple safety concerns that was ultimately reverted to its legal use. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to both routine upkeep and necessary repairs, including sewer repairs in 2010 and foundation work proposed in 2008 (though this permit expired). Recent 311 calls from late 2024 and early 2025 indicate ongoing concerns about exterior maintenance, with multiple reports of garbage and debris, though many of these cases were resolved or determined not to require work. The building is classified as a Tier 3 Soft Story property, and while the seismic retrofit work is complete, there remain concerns about fire safety systems that require attention.

Risk rating

How 67 Fresno 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
4th percentile

Out of 684 buildings in this neighborhood, 657 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.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

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 11.7%
Moderate concern 72.4%
Severe concern 15.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
