Initial analysis

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 911-915 Pacific Avenue in Nob Hill was constructed in 1915 and has undergone several significant maintenance and safety upgrades in recent years. Most notably, in 2023, the building received both a new roof installation costing $13,000 and the replacement of four electrical panels with 100A capacity, representing the most recent major infrastructure improvements. The building's maintenance history shows attention to both structural and safety concerns, with a completed reroofing project in 1992 and 1991, sidewalk repairs in 2005, and the removal of two 6x4 panel signs in 2012.

The property has experienced several safety-related inspections and violations, all of which have been resolved. In 2004, during a routine rat abatement inspection, multiple violations were recorded, including issues with security gates and locks, fire extinguisher requirements, and egress obstructions, all of which were abated by July 29, 2004. A 2006 inspection noted concerns about drainage pipes and fire safety equipment, while a 2012 inspection addressed electrical system issues. The building's most recent safety concerns were addressed through the 2023 electrical panel upgrades, though the records also show instances of graffiti (2023) and multiple parking enforcement issues, including seven cases of blocked driveways between 2022 and 2024. Two notable business-related issues were reported and resolved: an illegal mahjong parlor operating late night hours and unauthorized advertising signs in 2021. While there is one recorded fire incident involving the structure (type: "Fires in structure other than in a building"), it was classified as unintentional with no civilian injuries reported.

Risk rating

How 911-915 Pacific Ave'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

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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Notices of Violation, owner's portfolio

DBI NOVs across all buildings this owner is registered on — a signal of systemic maintenance issues across the portfolio.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 74.9%
Moderate concern 18.3%
Severe concern 6.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
