Augrented Insights

Initial analysis

The 4-story multi-family residential building at 2580-2590 Bush Street in Lower Pacific Heights, owned by the Tabar Family Trust, was constructed in 1905 and contains 7 units. The building has undergone several significant improvements and maintenance projects over the years, with the most recent major work being a $65,000 reroofing project completed in July 2023. Of particular note is the building's compliance with San Francisco's Soft Story Ordinance, having completed structural upgrades in 2014 that included the installation of shear walls and a moment frame as a Tier 3 building, for which a Certificate of Final Completion was issued. The property has also addressed accessibility improvements, including barrier removal in 2012 to comply with ADA requirements, and the installation of an ADA restroom.

The building has faced various building inspections and violations over the years, with a more significant cluster of issues identified during a routine inspection in January 2016, which included concerns about smoke detection, electrical systems, and safety equipment. However, all these violations were resolved by March 2016. Earlier routine inspections in 1999, 2002, and 2010 had identified various maintenance issues, including window security and central alarm system problems, which were subsequently addressed. The property has undergone substantial interior improvements, including a 2010 renovation of a kitchen and two bathrooms with associated plumbing and electrical upgrades, and additional infrastructure work such as the replacement of the electrical panel and various fixtures. Recent 311 calls from 2024 primarily relate to external issues such as debris, garbage, and graffiti on or near the property, though these are typical of urban environments and not directly related to the building's internal conditions or maintenance.

Risk rating

How 2580-2590 Bush 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

24th percentile

Out of 670 buildings in this neighborhood, 509 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 size

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

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Number of floors

Building height affects maintenance complexity and is one of the size signals the model uses.

12-Month severity forecast

No violation 45.9%

Moderate concern 37.7%

Severe concern 16.5%

Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
