Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 2149-2151 Jackson Street in Pacific Heights, constructed in 1936, has undergone several significant improvements over the years, most notably the addition of an elevator system in 2007 at a cost of $45,000, along with extensive electrical work including the installation of lights, outlets, and switches. More recent infrastructure updates include plumbing work in September 2015 involving the replacement of 4" side sewage lines and house running traps. The property has maintained compliance with safety requirements, with only one recorded fire incident being a false alarm with no injuries or property damage.

The building's maintenance and accessibility improvements have generally been well-documented through building permits, with regular attention to street space maintenance and sidewalk repairs. Recent activity has shown typical urban residential issues, including several parking violations in the vicinity (three instances in 2023-2024) and routine municipal service requests such as Christmas tree removal and water leak reporting in 2015. The property underwent no significant code violations or safety incidents in recent years, and all major improvement projects appear to have been completed successfully through proper permitting processes.

Risk rating

How 2149-2151 Jackson 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
95th percentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 48 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.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

Building age

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

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 81.4%
Moderate concern 12.8%
Severe concern 5.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
