Initial analysis

The 6-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 755 Pine Street, owned by the Joy Tom Blaser 2020 Irrevocable Trust, has undergone significant improvements and maintenance since its construction in 1907. Most recently, in November 2023, the building received a new roof at a cost of $33,000, and in August 2023, sound levels in sleeping areas were verified to comply with current regulations. The building has seen substantial unit upgrades through 2022, including a complete renovation of Unit 4 featuring kitchen and bathroom updates, along with heating unit replacement. A major safety improvement was completed in 2020 with the installation of a modern fire alarm system to meet 2021 mandates, including new pull stations, smoke detectors, and monitoring equipment.

The property has a documented history of regular maintenance and improvements, including updates to plumbing and electrical systems, with multiple units receiving new fixtures and systems between 2013-2014. While the building did experience some violations in the early 2000s related to fire safety equipment and cleanliness, these were promptly addressed and abated, with no active violations on record. Recent trends around the property as evidenced by 311 calls primarily relate to street cleaning issues outside the building, rather than internal maintenance concerns, and there have been no reported fire incidents involving civilian injuries. The management's commitment to ongoing maintenance is evident in the regular updating of systems and compliance with current building codes, with the most recent work focusing on structural and safety improvements.

Risk rating

How 755 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
90th percentile

Out of 448 buildings in this neighborhood, 45 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.

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.

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 42.5%
Moderate concern 41.2%
Severe concern 16.4%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
