Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 1260-1264 Pine Street, owned by Hermann & Roberta Wackler S, was constructed in 1910 and contains three units. The property has undergone significant recent improvements, including a completed $27,000 re-roofing project in October 2024 and a window replacement project in July 2024 that involved installing new wood composite-gliding double and casement windows. A notable series of renovations took place in 2013, including kitchen and bathroom remodels in the lower unit (completed at a cost of $70,000), electrical panel upgrades, and plumbing work to bring the building up to code following a complaint.

In October 2016, the building underwent a routine safety inspection that revealed multiple issues, including the need for carbon monoxide detectors, fire safety equipment, and security improvements. These violations were all abated by February 2017. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to infrastructure, with the most recent work focusing on maintaining building systems and improving safety features. While there have been several 311 calls related to street cleaning and garbage can maintenance in the surrounding area between 2021 and 2025, these external issues have been consistently addressed and resolved by city services. The only recorded fire incident was a carbon monoxide detector activation with no actual CO detected.

Risk rating

How 1260-1264 Pine 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 448 buildings in this neighborhood, 27 are predicted to be safer.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Neighborhood location
