Initial analysis

This two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located at 2977-2979 Jackson Street in Pacific Heights was constructed in 1900 and is currently owned by the Dana & Mickey Dantine Family. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past three decades, with the most substantial renovation occurring in 2017, which included a new garage, garage door, foundation work, interior stair modifications, and kitchen and bathroom remodeling with associated plumbing and electrical work, costing approximately $61,000. Additional improvements in 2018 included the installation of two new furnaces and associated ducting. Earlier renovations from the 1990s involved kitchen and bathroom remodeling, laundry facility installation, and structural modifications to the third floor.

The building has an extensive street space usage record, with multiple permits issued between 2017 and 2018, suggesting ongoing external work or maintenance. A complete reroofing project was successfully completed in 2001. The property experienced some fire department activity in 2011, including two alarm system incidents (one malfunction and one uncategorized complaint), though these were resolved without significant issues. A notable pattern of recent activity consists of multiple 311 calls in 2024 primarily related to parking enforcement matters, including several complaints about driveway blockages and illegal parking, as well as issues with waste receptacle management. While there were seven false fire alarm or false call incidents recorded between 2011 and 2016, none resulted in civilian injuries or significant damage, and the building's fire safety systems appear to have functioned as intended.

Risk rating

How 2977-2979 Jackson 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 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 202 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.

Building size

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

Property class: multi-family flat

2–4 unit flats (class F) are a common SF building type with their own maintenance and complaint patterns.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 74.5%
Moderate concern 14.2%
Severe concern 11.4%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
