Initial analysis

This two-unit multi-family residential building, located at 1441-1443 Pacific Avenue in the Nob Hill neighborhood, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1907 and currently owned by the Roberta L Chew Revocable Trust. The building has undergone several significant improvements and maintenance work over the years, with the most substantial renovations occurring between 2007-2008, including a comprehensive kitchen renovation in the lower unit (complete with new cabinets, counter tops, sink, and range hood), plumbing updates including water heater relocation and replacement, and electrical upgrades for additional outlets and circuits. Earlier maintenance records show historical attention to building upkeep, with completed projects including reroofing work (1989 and 2006), kitchen cabinet replacements, bathroom repairs, and dry rot remediation in 1983.

The property has experienced typical urban environmental challenges as evidenced by multiple 311 calls between 2018-2022, primarily related to street cleaning issues including loose garbage, hazardous materials like broken glass, and parking violations. A construction noise complaint was filed in January 2018, and there was one medical assistance call recorded, though no civilian injuries were associated with this incident. The building's maintenance history suggests regular upkeep has been performed, particularly in the late 2000s, with no recent major structural or safety concerns documented in available records up to October 2023.

Risk rating

How 1441-1443 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.
