Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 335-337 Waller Street in Hayes Valley, owned by David Cory Iwatsu Living Tr, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1908. The building underwent several significant maintenance and repair works in 2009, including complete reroofing at a cost of $15,000 and water damage repairs to a rear wall, though the latter permit expired. A rear yard variance was successfully obtained to replace an existing deck and stair configuration. The property has a history of street space usage, with multiple street space permits issued between 2008-2009, and electrical improvements including the installation of four outdoor lights and circuits in October 2008.

More recent history from 2020 to 2024 has shown recurring street maintenance issues around the property, with multiple complaints about garbage and debris on the street and sidewalk, including reports of toters being left out continuously. There were also some concerning incidents in 2021, including reports of hazardous materials (glass) and human or animal waste near the property, though these cases were resolved. In December 2009, there were two incidents requiring attention - one categorized as hoarding (which took until February 2015 to resolve) and another unspecified complaint that was corrected the same day. The pattern of 311 calls suggests ongoing maintenance and cleanliness challenges in the immediate vicinity of the building, though most reports in recent years have been resolved promptly.

Risk rating

How 335-337 Waller 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
88th percentile

Out of 1027 buildings in this neighborhood, 123 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.

Neighborhood location

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

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 83.4%
Moderate concern 9.9%
Severe concern 6.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
