Initial analysis

The 21-unit, 3-story apartment building at 350 Laguna Street in Hayes Valley, owned by Survivors Trust, has undergone significant improvements and faced recurring heating issues in recent years. Most notably, the building completed a fire alarm system upgrade in late 2023 to comply with current safety standards, adding 42 low-frequency sounders at a cost of $30,300. The building underwent substantial improvements in 2016, including the addition of four new residential units (#22-25) and comprehensive fire safety upgrades, such as the installation of a new fire sprinkler system throughout the ground floor, updated smoke detectors, and replacement of the fire alarm panel. The soft-story seismic upgrade was also completed, and all work received corresponding CFC issuance. Recent plumbing work includes the replacement of a domestic water boiler in September 2023, which was previously subject to permit violations in 2016 that were eventually resolved.

The building has a documented history of heating system problems, with multiple tenant complaints about inadequate heat between 2014 and 2017, and most recently in January 2025. These issues prompted several housing inspections and resulted in violations that required resolution, including a period in 2016 when the building faced two separate violations regarding unpermitted boiler operation. The property has maintained compliance with fire safety inspections since 2007-2008, though there have been periodic fire alarm system-related complaints. A tenant buyout occurred in April 2017, involving two tenants and totaling $21,000. The building's maintenance history shows regular updates to individual units, including kitchen and bathroom renovations in 2007, and various electrical, plumbing, and fire safety improvements, with the most current work focusing on maintaining compliance with modern safety standards. Recent 311 calls from 2023-2025 have primarily concerned external matters like illegal parking, tree maintenance, and sidewalk issues, rather than internal building concerns.

Risk rating

How 350 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.

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 size

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

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.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 14.0%
Moderate concern 77.3%
Severe concern 8.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
