Initial analysis

The Goh Family Revocable Intervivos Trust owns this three-story, four-unit multi-family residential building with retail space, constructed in 1900 and located in the Pacific Heights neighborhood. The property has undergone several significant modifications, most notably a proposed but ultimately cancelled $490,000 project in 2015 to add restrooms, offices, and a second egress stairway at the rear of the building. The building's rooftop has been used as a telecommunications facility since 2005, with multiple modifications including the installation of microcell panels and T-Mobile equipment, most recently including fiber box installations in 2009.

The building has experienced two notable fire code violations, in 2016 and most recently in March 2023, though records indicate these were addressed through corrective actions. Historical building violations from 2000 related to security requirements and utility shutoff tools were resolved in 2003. Recent infrastructure maintenance includes the installation of a new mini-split HVAC system in 2022. The property has maintained compliance with routine safety inspections, with the last recorded inspection in 2013 showing no active violations. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to parking enforcement and street cleaning, with the most recent call in December 2023 regarding a blocked driveway. While there have been multiple street space and sidewalk permits issued between 2000 and 2007, these are typical for urban properties of this age and type.

Risk rating

How 2045-2049 Divisadero 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
49th percentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 491 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.

Property class: apartment building

Apartment building — this property classification influences expected violation rates.

Building age

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 50.4%
Moderate concern 29.2%
Severe concern 20.4%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
