AI summary

The three-story mixed-use building at 455-459 Haight Street, owned by Ko-ri Inc, is a 5-unit multifamily residential property constructed in 1900, with ground-floor commercial space. The building has undergone numerous significant maintenance and improvement projects over the past few decades, with the most recent major work occurring in 2019 to install a power-operated entry door in compliance with ABE Ordinance 51-16. In 2016, additional foundation repairs were completed, building on previous retaining wall work at the rear of the lot in 2015. The property has a documented history of addressing structural and maintenance issues, including multiple roofing projects (2012), dry rot repairs (2011), and electrical system upgrades (2011) including new kitchen and bathroom remodels in unit 459A.

The building's maintenance history reveals several concerning resident experience issues, particularly in 2010 when multiple complaints were filed regarding heating problems, including reports of mold and lack of permanent heat sources. A previous electrical wiring complaint from 1995 noted potentially dangerous conditions involving loose wires and power issues, though this was apparently resolved by 2011. The property has experienced periodic security and maintenance concerns, as evidenced by a 2002 violation regarding a front security gate, though this was promptly addressed. Recent records from 2022-2024 indicate ongoing external maintenance challenges, with several reports of graffiti and debris issues in the vicinity of the building, while a recent 311 call in February 2024 remains open regarding graffiti. The building experienced one recorded fire incident related to equipment failure, though no civilian injuries were reported.

Risk rating

How 455-459 Haight 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

Out of 1027 buildings in this neighborhood, 401 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.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Neighborhood location

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 61.1%
Moderate concern 19.6%
Severe concern 19.4%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
