Initial analysis

The two-story, five-unit multi-family residential building at 100 Scott Street in Hayes Valley, owned by Kingsley Properties LLC, has undergone several significant safety and infrastructure upgrades since its construction in 1959. Most notably, in 2023, the building received a comprehensive fire safety upgrade including a new addressable fire alarm system, smoke detectors, pull stations, and low-frequency horns in all residential sleeping areas, with associated electrical work completed in July 2023. The building has successfully completed its mandatory seismic retrofit program (Tier 3) and roof replacement, demonstrating compliance with key safety requirements. Prior improvements include the replacement of 29 windows in 2019, including bedroom egress windows and those providing access to fire escapes, as well as the addition of a new ADU at the ground floor (though this permit was ultimately cancelled).

The building's history reveals a pattern of fire safety concerns in the late 2000s, with multiple violations recorded in 2008-2010 related to fire extinguishers, escape routes, and fire-proofing, all of which were abated by December 2008. More recent fire alarm system issues were noted in 2015, though these were promptly corrected. Building complaints from 2010-2012 indicated some maintenance challenges, including dry rot, window leaks, and hot water supply issues, but these were all resolved. The property has experienced recurring exterior maintenance challenges, as evidenced by multiple recent 311 calls regarding graffiti and sidewalk cleanliness between December 2024 and January 2025, though these are primarily street-level issues rather than building-specific problems.

Risk rating

How 100 Scott 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
42th percentile

Out of 1027 buildings in this neighborhood, 596 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.

Building size

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

Owner's portfolio size

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 54.7%
Moderate concern 21.4%
Severe concern 23.9%
