Initial analysis

The 5-unit multi-family residential building at 1608-1610 Vallejo Street in Pacific Heights, owned by Paoli Coyne Family Trust, was constructed in 1900 and is a 2-story apartment building that has undergone several significant safety upgrades. Most recently, in March 2024, the building received a fire alarm system upgrade costing $16,100 to comply with San Francisco Fire Code requirements. The property completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017, with work valued at $75,000, bringing the building into compliance with seismic safety requirements. The fire safety systems have been actively maintained, with a notable modification in 2023 to install low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas and update all devices to meet current fire department standards.

The building's history shows a pattern of addressing safety concerns, particularly regarding fire escape and alarm systems. A significant violation was recorded in 2000 regarding the rear fire escape, which was resolved by 2001 with the installation of a fire escape ladder. There have been multiple routine safety inspections over the years, with most recent inspections showing active maintenance of fire safety systems. The building has also had various maintenance work completed, including reroofing in 2012 ($8,000), dry rot repairs to the rear deck in 2009 ($20,000), and street space permits issued in 2018. Three tenant buyouts occurred between 2016-2017, with the most recent being in March 2017 for $66,313.27 involving three tenants. The property is currently experiencing some external issues as indicated by recent 311 calls, including concerns about tree damage to property (reported November 2023) and multiple reports of vehicles blocking the driveway (most recently in September 2023).

Risk rating

How 1608-1610 Vallejo 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
34th percentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 636 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

DBI tenant complaints (past 7 years)

Formal complaints tenants filed with DBI about this building over 7 years.

Building age

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 37.9%
Moderate concern 22.6%
Severe concern 39.5%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
