Initial analysis

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 1463-1467 Clay Street in Nob Hill, owned by William N. and Alice Wong, has undergone significant renovations and faced several maintenance challenges since its construction in 1909. Most notably, in 2022-2023, the property underwent substantial improvements including the reconstruction of a structurally unsafe four-story wood-framed egress stair at the rear yard, replacement of all 46 windows with energy-efficient alternatives, and comprehensive unit remodels costing over $243,000 in total. These improvements addressed several long-standing safety concerns, including compliance with seismic requirements and updating the building's energy efficiency.

The property has a history of maintenance issues and violations dating back to 2009, including problems with hot water heater seismic bracing, interior surface maintenance, and various safety concerns. Multiple complaints were filed between 2017-2019 regarding structural concerns, including reports of a potentially failing top floor balcony, retaining wall issues, and wildlife inhabitation in the garage. While these historical concerns were addressed through subsequent renovations, recent activity in 2024 has generated new inspection requests related to painting practices and noise, though many other recent service requests have been resolved, including several street cleaning and parking enforcement matters.

Risk rating

How 1463-1467 Clay 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.

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.
