Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 1175-1181 Pacific Avenue in Nob Hill, owned by Lee Family Trust A, consists of 4 units and was constructed in 1907. The property has undergone several significant infrastructure updates, most notably an electrical system modernization in January 2025, with the removal of a Federal Pacific electrical panel and installation of a new Cutler & Hammer load center with improved specifications, indicating proactive maintenance of critical systems. Historical records show a reroofing project from 1990, though this permit has since expired.

The building experienced notable issues in August 2012, when multiple violations were documented related to lead-based paint hazards and weatherproofing concerns on the siding. These violations were addressed and abated by October 2012 through proper remediation processes, including a final warning letter issued on September 26, 2012, and a director's hearing on October 18, 2012. Since then, there have been no building violations recorded, suggesting improved building maintenance and compliance. The surrounding area has experienced typical urban challenges, with 311 calls primarily relating to street conditions and temporary parking during moving activities in 2017, though these are not directly related to building conditions or resident safety.

Risk rating

How 1175-1181 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
69th percentile

Out of 1125 buildings in this neighborhood, 349 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.

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 46.1%
Moderate concern 18.1%
Severe concern 35.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
