Initial analysis

The three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 116-120 Leroy Pl in Nob Hill, owned by the Giannini Family Trust B, has undergone significant renovations and faced several maintenance challenges since its construction in 1910. Recent improvements include a substantial 2021 kitchen remodel ($45,000) with associated electrical and plumbing upgrades, installation of three wall furnaces with ventilation systems, and the introduction of an energy storage system with Tesla Powerwall batteries in 2018-2019. The building has received attention to major systems, including a complete reroofing in 2013, exterior stucco work, and comprehensive electrical upgrades across multiple floors in 2011.

The property has experienced various maintenance issues, particularly between 2006 and 2014, including significant interior problems that required multiple violations to be addressed, such as water damage, mold/mildew, and fire safety concerns. Notable complaints from 2009-2010 highlighted issues with leaks, damaged windows, and heating problems, though most of these were eventually resolved. The building's recent history shows active maintenance and improvements, with no major violations or active complaints recorded in the past several years. The most recent building permits (2021-2022) suggest ongoing improvements to the property's infrastructure, though there was a permit revision in 2022 involving the removal of a non-structural wall. The property's exterior and common areas have been maintained as evidenced by the resolution of various 311 calls regarding street cleaning and maintenance, though these are primarily related to public areas rather than the building itself.

Risk rating

How 116-120 Leroy Pl'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
37th percentile

Out of 1125 buildings in this neighborhood, 709 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.

Property class: tenancy in common

Tenancy-in-common ownership structure, which has distinct maintenance and management patterns.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

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 52.1%
Moderate concern 41.1%
Severe concern 6.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
