Initial analysis

2407 Octavia Street is a three-story, multi-family residential building located in Pacific Heights, containing 7 units and constructed in 1900. The property has undergone significant improvements and maintenance work over the past decade, with particular attention to safety systems and modernization. Most notably, in 2018, a comprehensive fire alarm system was installed throughout the building, including a new control panel, heat detectors, and low-frequency horns in every unit. Earlier improvements included substantial structural work in 2013 with foundation replacement on the north side, and infrastructure upgrades in 2014 including a new roof, garage expansion, and fire sprinkler system enhancements. Individual unit improvements have been substantial, with Unit #8 receiving a major renovation in 2014, including complete bathroom and kitchen remodeling, while other units have seen similar updates to kitchen and bathroom facilities between 2012-2014.

The building has a history of addressing safety and regulatory compliance issues, with all identified problems being resolved through proper channels. This includes the resolution of ventilation and egress obstruction issues identified in 2000, and the installation of necessary double check valve assemblies for the fire service in 2012. A routine safety inspection was conducted in 2014, and the most recent fire-related inspection in 2020 resulted in corrected conditions. Recent 311 calls related to the property have primarily concerned parking issues and general municipal services, with no critical building safety concerns noted in the most recent calls. The property has maintained active compliance with housing and safety regulations, with all permits showing "Complete" status and no open violations against the building.

Risk rating

How 2407 Octavia 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
45th percentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 530 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.

Building age

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

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 44.5%
Moderate concern 19.6%
Severe concern 35.9%
