Initial analysis

1803 Laguna Street is a two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Lower Pacific Heights neighborhood, constructed in 1900 and containing three units. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and infrastructure improvements over the years, with the most recent major work being a complete sewer replacement in May 2023. Other notable historical repairs include remediation of dry rot on the front staircase in 1995, garage structural improvements in 1994, and electrical system updates in 2003 that included installing circuits for air conditioning and relocating existing circuits.

The building has experienced recurring issues with its fire alarm system, though fortunately none of these incidents involved actual fires or civilian injuries - with multiple smoke detector activations and one false alarm recorded. In terms of recent activity, there has been one notable infrastructure issue reported as of September 2024 involving a missing side sewer vent cover, while another street-related maintenance issue was reported regarding lifted sidewalk caused by tree roots.

Risk rating

How 1803 Laguna 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 670 buildings in this neighborhood, 362 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 60.6%
Moderate concern 19.6%
Severe concern 19.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
