Initial analysis

1430 Sacramento Street is a 3-story, 7-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1909 in the Nob Hill neighborhood, currently owned by Filbert Fll Apts Lp. The building's recent history shows significant safety improvements, including a comprehensive fire alarm system upgrade completed in 2023 costing $18,799, which included new fire panel, pull stations, smokes, horn strobes, and low-frequency sounders in sleeping rooms. The building has had several unit-specific improvements, notably in 2019, when Unit 5 underwent major renovations including an office addition, kitchen relocation, and bathroom remodeling, along with corresponding electrical and plumbing updates. The building has also seen important infrastructure work, including a main underground sewer replacement in 2017, window repairs in Unit 4 in 2019, and standard maintenance such as reroofing completed in 2013.

The property has experienced several compliance issues over the years, though many have been addressed. Notably, in 2018-2019, there were concerns about dilapidated wood-sash windows and various building maintenance issues, which were resolved. Historical violations from 2001 related to fire safety, guardrails, and plumbing were eventually abated, as were issues in 2009 regarding fire escape maintenance. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to safety systems, with the most recent fire alarm upgrade in 2023 indicating proactive safety compliance. Current open cases from 2024 include a fire hazard report and a sidewalk painting issue, while previous 311 calls from 2022 primarily concerned general street cleaning matters. The property has experienced minimal structural modifications outside basic maintenance and unit-specific improvements, with historical permits from 1984 for wallboard and cabinet installation being the oldest recorded work.

Risk rating

How 1430 Sacramento 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
47th percentile

Out of 1125 buildings in this neighborhood, 596 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.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

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 71.2%
Moderate concern 18.1%
Severe concern 10.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
