Initial analysis

The two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 1908 Green Street in Cow Hollow, owned by Macinnes Marti A & Karen S, was constructed in 1900 and has undergone several notable improvements over the years. The property has maintained regular upkeep, including a significant reroofing project in 2006 costing $15,000, and a water heater replacement in 2007. One of the most substantial modifications was a completed horizontal addition in 1989, followed by a rear yard remodel adding to the back of the building and deck, which received approved planning status. The building's maintenance record shows attention to structural improvements, though there was a water main issue in 2020 that required attention.

The property's recent history (2023) has seen typical urban challenges, including several street cleaning incidents involving waste and abandoned items, all of which were resolved appropriately. There were two reported instances of parking violations (July 2019) regarding sidewalk parking, though in one case officers were unable to locate the offending vehicle. Historical permits show proper attention to public space, with a street space permit issued in 2010. The building's maintenance history suggests regular attention to infrastructure needs, with no recorded building permit violations or safety concerns. The property's documented history reflects standard urban living conditions in San Francisco, with regular maintenance and prompt response to municipal service needs.

Risk rating

How 1908 Green 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
54th percentile

Out of 861 buildings in this neighborhood, 396 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 age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 83.5%
Moderate concern 9.7%
Severe concern 6.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
