Initial analysis

The 1167 Hayes Street building is an 8-unit, 4-story multi-family residential apartment building constructed in 1912, currently owned by Walter Worsham 2001 Revoc T. The property has undergone several significant improvements and maintenance work over the past two decades, including a complete reroofing project in December 2023 costing $23,100, and the replacement of the hydronic boiler system in February 2024. The building successfully completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2020, demonstrating compliance with seismic safety requirements. Historical records show consistent attention to building maintenance, with multiple roofing repairs, window replacements, and structural improvements, including the repair of rear stairs in both 2000 and 2004 to address safety concerns.

The building has faced several maintenance challenges over the years, most notably water-related issues. In 2013, there were complaints about water flooding and leaks, with subsequent violations related to mold and damaged walls. The property has had recurring boiler maintenance requirements, with multiple complaints regarding permit renewals between 2010 and 2023, though these issues appear to have been resolved with the recent boiler replacement. Other historical violations included concerns about the fire escape system in 2008 and various interior maintenance issues noted in 2013. Regular inspections and prompt resolution of violations suggest ongoing management attention to building safety and maintenance requirements. Recent 311 calls (2023) primarily relate to street cleaning and graffiti issues, which are external to the building's operations and management.

Risk rating

How 1167 Hayes 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
