AI summary

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 2573 California Street in Lower Pacific Heights, owned by Roksvag-zanger Survivor's T, has undergone several maintenance and improvement projects since 2015. Most recently, in February 2023, three non-street visible windows were replaced with wood double-hung windows at a cost of $9,646. This followed a pattern of window upgrades over several years, including a 2018 project replacing one window and a patio door, and a 2017 project replacing three windows, all focusing on energy efficiency improvements with specific U-factor requirements. Significant structural work was performed in 2015, including a roof replacement costing $11,000 and foundation bolting for seismic safety improvements.

The building and its surrounding area have experienced several maintenance issues documented through 311 calls, particularly in 2021 when there were multiple reports of loose garbage on the street/sidewalk and concerns about tree roots lifting the sidewalk, which remain as an open issue. A sidewalk defect was reported in September 2021, though its current status is unclear. While there was one recorded fire incident, it was classified as a false alarm with no civilian injuries. The property's maintenance history shows regular attention to both interior upgrades and exterior structural needs, with particular focus on window replacement and weatherization improvements over the past several years.

Risk rating

How 2573 California 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
62th percentile

Out of 670 buildings in this neighborhood, 255 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 age

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 74.3%
Moderate concern 18.0%
Severe concern 7.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
