Initial analysis

The 5-unit multi-family residential building at 635 Page Street in Hayes Valley, owned by the Evelyn Z Thompson Trust, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1926. Most notably, the property has seen substantial renovations in recent years, including a comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodel in units #1, #2, and #5 in 2021 costing $78,000, along with a 400-amp electrical service upgrade completed in February 2024. The building's safety infrastructure has been maintained and improved over the years, with the most critical repairs made following a fire incident in 1997 that required wood siding replacement and roof repairs, and more recently, the replacement of one flight of exterior stairs in 2016 to ensure proper means of egress.

The property has experienced periodic maintenance and compliance issues, most notably a series of building violations in 2002 related to handrails, fire escape ladders, security systems, and door mechanisms, all of which were resolved by July 2002. The building's fire alarm system has had two documented false alarms in 2006, though these were attributed to system malfunctions rather than actual emergencies. While there have been multiple 311 calls regarding parking issues (including sidewalk parking and driveway blockages) and street cleaning matters in recent years, these appear to relate to the surrounding area rather than the building itself. The property has maintained active compliance with building codes since the 2002 violations, with no recent building complaints or violations on record. The most recent significant building upgrades include the comprehensive system modernization in 2021-2024, demonstrating ongoing investment in the property's maintenance and infrastructure.

Risk rating

How 635 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

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
67th percentile

Out of 1027 buildings in this neighborhood, 339 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.

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.

Building size

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 53.2%
Moderate concern 24.4%
Severe concern 22.5%
