Initial analysis

The 6-unit multi-family residential building at 54-60 Salmon Street in Nob Hill, owned by Harry Y & Beatrice Horn Rev, was constructed in 1907 and consists of two stories. The property has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the past decades, with the most pressing concern being multiple reports of unsafe wiring documented in April-May 2021, one of which remains active as of October 2023. The building underwent stair repairs in 2000 to address safety violations, which also included requirements for fire extinguisher recharging, self-closing doors, and appropriate garbage receptacle placement, all of which were abated by July 2000. A complete plumbing repair was performed in 2017 involving the replacement of a broken 4" house trap.

More recent maintenance challenges have arisen, including sewer issues in 2023 with a sewage backup incident noted in May 2023. The property has also undergone various routine safety inspections over the years, with findings in 2016 indicating needed improvements to stairways, carbon monoxide alarms, and egress clearance. In 2019, a complaint was filed regarding unpermitted construction work that was resolved by May 2022. Recent 311 calls from 2023-2024 have primarily focused on external maintenance matters such as garbage management, graffiti removal, and sidewalk cleaning. The building was previously cited for various violations in 2000 and 2016, including irregularities with fire safety equipment and access issues, but these were addressed within the required timeframes. While most historical violations have been resolved, the recent wiring safety concerns and plumbing issues suggest ongoing maintenance challenges within the property.

Risk rating

How 54-60 Salmon 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
38th percentile

Out of 1125 buildings in this neighborhood, 698 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.

DBI tenant complaints (past 7 years)

Formal complaints tenants filed with DBI about this building over 7 years.

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 39.0%
Moderate concern 27.7%
Severe concern 33.3%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
