Initial analysis

Located in San Francisco's Nob Hill neighborhood, this two-unit multi-family residential building at 1023-1025 Clay Street is a 1947 duplex structure currently owned by Real Estate Investment Co I L. The property's maintenance history shows minimal significant structural work, with a reroofing project completed in 1989 and a street space permit issued in 2013, though no major renovations or improvements have been documented in recent decades.

Of particular concern are two housing complaints filed regarding unauthorized units: one in 2016 alleging the presence of an illegal unit above 1029 with structural problems, and another in 2000 (quickly abated) regarding multiple units sharing two meters. The building has experienced recurring issues with graffiti, with two recent incidents reported in October 2023 currently under investigation. The surrounding area has faced various urban maintenance challenges, including reports of waste (both human/animal and general debris), pavement defects, and multiple incidents of illegal parking between 2020 and 2022, though these are primarily related to street conditions rather than direct building concerns. A general request for service involving DPH Environmental Health was documented in July 2020, but specific details about this case are not available in the records.

Risk rating

How 1023-1025 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.

Grade D–F — High risk

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

Neighborhood percentile
