Initial analysis

1310 Jones Street is a 12-story, 56-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1955, currently owned by Crest Royal Corp and located in the Nob Hill neighborhood. The building has undergone several significant infrastructure improvements over the years, including water heater and boiler replacements, plumbing modifications, and various electrical upgrades such as elevator modernization in 2022-2024 and fire alarm system improvements in 2005. While maintenance and repairs have generally been addressed, there have been recurring issues with boiler permit compliance, with multiple violations documented between 2018 and 2023, most recently in 2023 when permits for three boilers were found to be expired, though these violations were abated by June 2023.

The building has faced some concerning safety and compliance issues in recent years, particularly regarding its fire safety systems. Violations were issued in late 2023 and 2024 related to sprinkler/standpipe system compliance, and a sleeping area requirement violation was noted in November 2023. However, most fire-related incidents recorded have been non-threatening in nature, typically involving alarm system activations or assistance calls with no civilian injuries reported. The property has undergone periodic routine safety inspections, and while some violations have been referred for hearing, most have been resolved. Recent maintenance work has included the installation of new hydronic heating boilers in 2013 and various electrical improvements, suggesting ongoing efforts to maintain and upgrade building systems. The most recent fire violations from November 2023 and December 2024 pertain to sprinkler system requirements, indicating continued attention to fire safety compliance is necessary.

Risk rating

How 1310 Jones 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

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.

Neighborhood location

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 5.4%
Moderate concern 72.1%
Severe concern 22.5%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
