Initial analysis

The property at 469-475 Ivy Street in Hayes Valley is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Hayes Valley Properties LLC. The building has experienced significant maintenance and compliance issues over the years, most notably an active violation from 2017 citing multiple safety and maintenance concerns, including being unregistered, insecure, and featuring missing windows and siding in the rear. This violation prompted a permitted $400,000 vertical addition project in 2017 to construct a master suite and roof deck, along with interior remodeling to address compliance needs. The building has a documented history of moisture-related problems dating back to the 1990s, including multiple complaints about roof leaks, mold, and mildew from 1997-2002. Structural issues were addressed in 2015 with the replacement of rotted exterior west property line wall, and in 2014, temporary excavation shoring and underpinning work was performed in response to neighboring construction at 580 Hayes Street.

Recent activity around the property has raised concerns, with multiple 311 calls in late 2024/early 2025 regarding garbage and debris issues, though these primarily concern street cleaning matters rather than building violations. The building's recent permits and active renovation work suggest some level of ongoing maintenance and improvement efforts, particularly in response to past violations. Historical records show various improvements and repairs were attempted in the late 1990s, including reroofing and deck repairs, though some permits expired without completion. The property has experienced recurring moisture and maintenance issues throughout its history, though recent permit activity indicates some attention to these longstanding problems.

Risk rating

How 469-475 Ivy 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.
