Initial analysis

The four-unit multi-family residential building at 462-466 Linden Street in Hayes Valley, owned by Robert A Goodwin, is a two-story structure built in 1900. The building has undergone several significant renovations and repairs over the past few years, most notably an electrical service upgrade and multiple wiring improvements that were issued in late 2024. In 2019, the building received attention for deck post repairs at the rear of the building to comply with a notice of violation, along with re-roofing work costing $23,500. The building's history includes a notable fire incident in 2008 at unit 464 that caused water damage affecting other units, leading to mold issues that were later addressed through various repairs between 2008-2019. The property experienced a series of building code violations in late 2007 related to safety and security requirements, including issues with stairs, exterior doors, and fire safety equipment, all of which were abated by April 2008.

The building has undergone various unit-specific upgrades, including kitchen and bathroom renovations in 2011, installation of a skylight, and multiple plumbing and electrical improvements. Recent service requests through 311 show typical urban maintenance issues, including reports of waste and graffiti in the vicinity, though these appear to be regular neighborhood concerns rather than building-specific problems. The fire incident records show two minor incidents (a gas leak and excessive heat) with no civilian injuries reported. The property has maintained active compliance with building codes following the 2008 violations, as evidenced by the regular updates and repairs completed in recent years, including the recent electrical improvements that suggest ongoing maintenance of the building's infrastructure.

Risk rating

How 462-466 Linden 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 1027 buildings in this neighborhood, 698 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.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

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 42.2%
Moderate concern 21.7%
Severe concern 36.1%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
