Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1630 Beach Street in the Marina neighborhood is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1938, currently owned by the Caratto Robert L Bypass Trust. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and repair projects over the past three decades, with the most recent being a porch roof repair in 2012. Earlier major work included multiple roof replacements in the 1990s (1996 and 1998), and foundation repairs in 1990 which involved the demolition and replacement of damaged sections.

The building's recent history (2013-2020) shows a series of municipal service requests and inspections, with some notable events including a 2017 incident involving blocked exit common areas (which was found to have no merit upon inspection) and defective doors/windows. Earlier concerns in 2014-2015 involved requests for red color curbs, and in 2020, there was a parking enforcement issue regarding a vehicle blocking the driveway. The property has maintained general structural integrity over the years, with building permits indicating routine maintenance rather than emergency repairs. The absence of any major safety violations or repeated complaints about building systems since 2017 suggests stable building conditions, though it's worth noting that some historical permits (specifically the 1996 roofing permit) are listed as expired in the records.

Risk rating

How 1630 Beach 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.
