Initial analysis

The 15-19 Stone Street property is a three-story, multi-family residential building constructed in 1914, housing three units in the Nob Hill neighborhood. The building has undergone several significant renovations and improvements over the years, including a comprehensive electrical upgrade in 2007-2008 that installed 200-amp service and new metering for all units, a kitchen remodel at unit 17 in 2007, and plumbing repairs in 2011. In 2006, the building addressed violations regarding a problematic basement bathroom and water heater exhaust installation, with completed repairs costing $6,000.

The property has faced multiple safety and compliance issues, particularly relating to fire safety. In 2011, a cluster of fire safety violations was documented, including problems with egress obstruction, fire sprinkler requirements, combustible storage, and exit signage, though all were abated by September 2011. A 2017 inspection noted violations related to fire extinguishers and alarm systems, which were resolved by January 2018. The building's maintenance history shows attention to infrastructure needs, such as a canceled re-roofing project in 2016 with an estimated cost of $18,500. Recent 311 calls from 2024 have primarily concerned street cleaning issues, though these are external to the building itself. The property has also been involved in a short-term rental violation case that was resolved through penalties and compliance changes. While the building has had its share of maintenance and compliance challenges, most violations have been addressed through appropriate corrective actions, with no active violations currently on record as of the most recent data.

Risk rating

How 15-19 Stone 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
89th percentile

Out of 1125 buildings in this neighborhood, 124 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.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Property class: multi-family flat

2–4 unit flats (class F) are a common SF building type with their own maintenance and complaint patterns.

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 56.3%
Moderate concern 28.7%
Severe concern 15.1%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
