Initial analysis

The 6-unit, 3-story apartment building at 547 Page Street in Hayes Valley, owned by Kockos Kent, was constructed in 1916 and has undergone several significant safety upgrades in recent years. Most notably, in 2023, the building received a comprehensive fire alarm system upgrade costing approximately $35,792, including the installation of addressable smoke detectors, manual pull stations, horn strobes, and low-frequency horns in residential sleeping areas, along with associated electrical improvements. The building has completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit program (Tier 3) as of 2017, demonstrating compliance with seismic safety requirements. Historical records from 2004-2005 show a period of multiple fire safety violations, including issues with fire escapes, smoke enclosure doors, fire extinguishers, and combustible storage, though all these violations were abated by February 2005.

The building has undergone various maintenance and infrastructure improvements over the years, including reroofing in 2000, horizontal addition in 1997, and permeation routing work in 2006. Recent maintenance issues have included a missing side sewer vent cover (resolved August 2024), though there have been multiple instances of sidewalk parking violations near the property, with the most recent cases reported between October 2023 and December 2024. The building's fire safety systems were notably addressed in 2023 with the installation of a wireless communicator and additional fire safety equipment, and there was a gas service-related inspection in 2018. While the building experienced some structural and maintenance issues in the mid-1990s, with reports of peeling paint and wall problems, these appear to have been resolved, and there have been no similar complaints in recent years.

Risk rating

How 547 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
56th percentile

Out of 1027 buildings in this neighborhood, 452 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.

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.

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 42.8%
Moderate concern 48.3%
Severe concern 8.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
