Initial analysis

This Nob Hill property, located at 1567-1569 Leavenworth Street, is a two-unit mixed-use building constructed in 1911, comprising a second-floor residential unit above a ground-floor commercial space. The building has undergone numerous improvements over the past decade, with the most significant recent work occurring in 2021-2022, including bathroom additions, fireplace installations, and electrical upgrades. In 2014, substantial renovations were completed to convert a former laundry space into office space with a bathroom. Notably, the building experienced a significant safety concern in December 2015 when complaints were filed regarding unpermitted recreational use of the roof, which lacked proper guardrails and parapets, presenting serious fall hazards. These violations were related to building code requirements for elevated walkways and roof safety, though records indicate these issues were abated by March 2016.

Recent maintenance and improvements have included reroofing work in 2021, window replacements in 2017, and various plumbing and electrical upgrades to enhance building systems. The property has undergone multiple compliance inspections and improvements to address building code requirements, particularly following physical inspection reports in 2017 (CC8012). The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep and modernization efforts by the current ownership (Kaping LLC), with recent work focusing on interior improvements rather than structural changes. There have been no active building violations since 2016, though the property has experienced periodic issues typical for urban settings, as evidenced by recent 311 calls regarding street cleaning, abandoned vehicles, and exterior maintenance concerns in the surrounding area.

Risk rating

How 1567-1569 Leavenworth 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.
