Initial analysis

2145 Green Street is a 5-story, 9-unit multi-family residential building located in Pacific Heights, constructed in 1963 and currently owned by the Harry Yon Gat Hom Irrevocable Trust. The building has undergone several significant upgrades and maintenance work over the past two decades, with the most recent major improvements focusing on the fire safety systems. In 2024, the building received a substantial $51,000 fire alarm system upgrade and related electrical work, which followed multiple fire safety violations for alarm system maintenance issues over the years, including a July 2024 violation that was subsequently abated. The building has experienced recurring fire safety system challenges, with multiple fire alarm and sprinkler system complaints between 2017 and 2024, though most were resolved promptly with either corrections or violations being abated.

Historical maintenance records show regular upkeep of building infrastructure, including window replacement in 2011 (#303), reroofing work in 1989 and 2006, and a recent meter bank replacement in early 2024. The building has undergone routine safety inspections by Housing Inspection Services in 2001, 2007, and 2016, with one fire-related violation in 2007 concerning fire proofing that was resolved within two months. Recent 311 calls (2023-2024) primarily relate to street maintenance issues such as garbage and debris clean-up, which while not directly related to building conditions, can impact the surrounding environment. The property has maintained a generally stable history with most issues being addressed promptly, though the recurring nature of fire system-related violations suggests ongoing attention to fire safety systems is required.

Risk rating

How 2145 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

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 838 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 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 32.0%
Moderate concern 45.0%
Severe concern 23.0%
