Initial analysis

Located at 1230 Hyde Street in Nob Hill, this 12-unit, 3-story apartment building owned by Helen P Dang Revocable Trust was constructed in 1921 and has undergone several significant improvements over recent years. The building completed its mandatory soft-story seismic retrofit in 2019, resolving a compliance issue that resulted in a complaint being filed in May 2020. The property has had multiple fire safety improvements, including a fire escape maintenance citation in 2017 that was abated, and a fire escape replacement project in 2009 costing $24,000. Recent electrical upgrades include the installation of a grounding conductor in 2019, following previous concerns about inadequate electrical service in 1997.

The building has experienced occasional maintenance and safety issues, including a 2019 complaint about construction noise and a 2019 fire escape concern that was addressed. Various routine inspections have been conducted over the years, with most recent inspections showing proper compliance with safety requirements. The property has encountered several parking-related issues, with multiple citations issued for driveway blocking in recent years, and has experienced periodic graffiti incidents, with the most recent case reported as open in November 2023. While the building's historical maintenance record shows some past violations and complaints, recent data indicates improved compliance with safety regulations and building codes, particularly regarding seismic retrofitting and fire safety systems.

Risk rating

How 1230 Hyde 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

Out of 1125 buildings in this neighborhood, 945 are predicted to be safer.

What's driving this score

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

DBI tenant complaints (past 7 years)

Formal complaints tenants filed with DBI about this building over 7 years.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 14.3%
Moderate concern 48.9%
Severe concern 36.8%
