Initial analysis

This 12-unit, three-story multi-family residential building located at 1565 Green Street in Pacific Heights was constructed in 1926 and is currently owned by Cathryn Hyde. The property has undergone significant safety and structural improvements over the years, including mandatory soft-story seismic retrofitting completed in 2015 with a cost of $55,000, installation of new fire alarm systems in 2009 ($17,500), and replacement of two 100-gallon water heaters in 2015. The building experienced a serious fire incident in 1990 that required three stories of repair work, and while there were several building code violations documented between 2001-2008 related to fire safety systems, handrails, and fire proofing, these issues were all resolved. A recent sound level verification project was completed in July 2023 to comply with local sound regulations.

The property's recent maintenance history shows regular attention to safety systems, with the most recent fire alarm system corrections documented in 2015. The building has been subject to routine safety inspections, most recently in 2016, which resulted in various improvements being made. There have been occasional infrastructure repairs, including garage dry rot repair and backyard concrete work completed in the mid-1990s. Environmental maintenance issues have been reported in the surrounding area, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls between 2018 and 2024 regarding sidewalk cleaning needs, though these are external to the building itself. The building's fire incident record shows primarily false alarms or detector activations, with no recorded civilian injuries, suggesting that safety systems are generally functioning as intended. The property's soft-story retrofit has been completed and received its Certificate of Final Completion (CFC), placing it in compliance with San Francisco's seismic safety requirements.

Risk rating

How 1565 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

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 (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 35.5%
Moderate concern 41.5%
Severe concern 23.0%
