AI summary

The 2395 Pacific Avenue property is a 3-story, 18-unit multi-family residential building located in Pacific Heights, built in 1926 and currently owned by the 1993 Crisafi Family Living Trust. The building has undergone significant improvements in recent years, with the most substantial work being the upcoming in-kind replacement of 129 windows with aluminum clad wood units scheduled for 2024 (cost: $150,000). Previous major renovations include two siding projects (2022 and 2023) involving insulation upgrades and installation of James Hardie siding, a complete reroofing in 2022, and an important fire alarm system upgrade in 2022 to comply with San Francisco Fire Code requirements.

The property has demonstrated compliance with safety regulations through a completed soft-story retrofit in 2015, which involved foundational improvements and steel moment frame installation to enhance seismic performance. While there were several building violations recorded in 2001 related to boiler operation and fire safety systems, these were all abated by 2002. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to infrastructure, including a new boiler installation for domestic hot water service in 2015, and more recently, work on backflow prevention systems completed in 2023. Fire incidents have been minimal and typically non-destructive, with no civilian injuries reported. The building's 311 call history reveals typical urban maintenance issues, mainly involving garbage debris, with the most recent calls in 2024. A significant sewer backup issue was reported and resolved in March 2024.

Risk rating

How 2395 Pacific Ave'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
32th percentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 655 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.

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 34.3%
Moderate concern 57.8%
Severe concern 7.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
