Initial analysis

The Laussat Street property, located at 263-265 Laussat St in Hayes Valley, is a 2-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Aaron & Jami Johnson Family Trust. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, most notably the successful conversion of the ground floor into a separate unit in 2007 (completed at a cost of $40,000) and the installation of a spiral staircase at the rear yard in 2018 (cost: $8,000). Recent improvements include a backyard fence modification in 2022 to increase height and support latticework. The building has received proper updates to its mechanical systems, including two furnace replacements in 2012 and the installation of separate utilities for unit #265 between 2008-2012.

The property has a documented complaint from October 2017 regarding safety concerns about a door replacement leading to an 8-foot drop, though this complaint is no longer active. Historical improvements include window replacements in 2013 and basement renovations in 2000-2001 adding living spaces and a bedroom. Recent neighborhood maintenance issues have been primarily related to street cleaning and encampment management in the vicinity, with multiple 311 calls recorded between 2020-2021, though these are external to the property itself. The building's permit history shows regular maintenance and upgrade activities consistent with maintaining a multi-family residential property, with no significant safety or compliance issues currently outstanding. All major structural and systems improvements have been properly permitted and completed, with no active violations or unresolved permits on record.

Risk rating

How 263-265 Laussat 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, 41 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 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 87.1%
Moderate concern 7.8%
Severe concern 5.1%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
