Initial analysis

The 40-unit, 5-story apartment building at 1350 Sutter Street, built in 1910 and owned by Cassil/stamper R E Tr, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over recent years. The most pressing current concerns include an ongoing elevator malfunction problem reported in December 2022, affecting vulnerable residents on upper floors, and a sleeping area requirements violation from November 2023 that remains open. The building has a history of maintenance challenges, with multiple fire code violations issued between 2020 and 2024, including issues with alarm systems, exits, and hazardous materials. There have also been persistent elevator-related emergencies, with nine documented incidents of elevator rescues by fire services, though none resulted in civilian injuries.

Historical records show various improvement efforts, including a seismic retrofit in 2000 (though the permit expired), compliance with UMB ordinance in 1994, and parapet wall reinforcement in 1988. The building has undergone multiple interior maintenance issues, as evidenced by violation notices in 2011 for damaged walls, ceilings, and floor coverings, though these were abated by July 2011. More recent tenant complaints include water outages (2022), plumbing issues (2017), and water damage potentially involving mold (2016). The property has experienced routine safety inspections, revealing various code compliance issues that were generally addressed, though some recent violations suggest ongoing concerns with building systems and maintenance.

Risk rating

How 1350 Sutter 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
18th percentile

Out of 85 buildings in this neighborhood, 70 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 size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

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 6.7%
Moderate concern 65.2%
Severe concern 28.1%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
