Initial analysis

The multi-family residential building at 278 Page Street in Hayes Valley has undergone several significant infrastructure improvements since the 1980s, with the most recent major work consisting of a sewer replacement from the property line to the sidewalk completed in 2009, and a comprehensive electrical system upgrade in 2004 that included rewiring the entire house, installing three panels, and adding new house meters for multiple units. Between 2006-2007, the property received attention to both its structural and safety features, including a brick foundation replacement and electrical service improvements, though there was also a concerning history of building violations in the early 2000s related to egress obstruction at front stairs.

The property has experienced multiple maintenance and safety issues over its history, with documented problems including dry rot in exterior features such as back decks and stairs in 1998, which posed safety concerns for tenants. More recently, in 2016, there was a complaint regarding un-permitted renovations including plumbing, electrical work, and modifications to the garden area, though this case was abated within days of filing. The building's recent history shows attention to basic maintenance and infrastructure, with multiple 311 calls regarding the property and its surroundings since 2020, including reports of parking violations, sidewalk defects, and tree maintenance needs, though these are primarily related to exterior and public space concerns rather than building-specific issues. A short-term rental complaint regarding unit 274 was also documented and closed, indicating some monitoring of unauthorized rental activities in the building.

Risk rating

How 274 Page 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

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
96thpercentile

Out of 1027 buildings in this neighborhood, 41 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

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.

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.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.
