Initial analysis

The duplex property at 55-57 Cervantes Boulevard in the Marina, owned by the Ifergan Family Trust, is a two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1946. The most significant recent improvements occurred in 2008-2010, when the building underwent substantial upgrades including the installation of an automatic fire sprinkler system, a new 200-amp, 3-meter main service electrical system with extensive lighting and wiring work, and the replacement of heating systems with two high-efficiency gas furnaces serving different floors. Building inspections for various permitted work were successfully completed in December 2010, indicating that all previously authorized renovations were properly finished.

An earlier building violation from December 2006 regarding unauthorized construction of a spiral staircase and trellis work was resolved by February 2009, when the issue was abated. While there was one fire safety complaint in July 2013, it was promptly addressed within three days. The property has maintained a relatively clean record since these improvements, with only routine maintenance issues reported through 311 calls, including street cleaning requests and a missing side sewer vent cover in 2018. Most recent 311 calls from 2021-2023 have been regarding external matters such as street graffiti and parking enforcement, rather than building-specific issues.

Risk rating

How 55-57 Cervantes Blvd'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
92th percentile

Out of 988 buildings in this neighborhood, 79 are predicted to be safer.
