Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 49-59 Beideman Street in the Western Addition neighborhood, constructed in 1904 and currently owned by Angelina L. Forte, consists of 6 units and has undergone significant improvements over the years. Most notably, the building completed mandatory soft-story retrofit work in 2013, including the installation of grade beams and shear walls in the basement, to enhance seismic safety. Between 2012-2013, substantial renovations were performed throughout the building, including comprehensive bathroom remodels in all six units, replacement of all six wall furnaces, complete electrical system upgrades with new wiring for lights, receptacles, switches, smoke detectors, and panels, as well as plumbing installations for bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry facilities. An extensive renovation in 2009 had previously updated kitchens, bathrooms, windows, and storage facilities, demonstrating consistent maintenance and improvement of the property.

The building underwent routine safety inspections in 2018 and 2019, during which multiple violations were identified, including issues with fire safety equipment, stair handrails, and carbon monoxide alarms. While these violations were noted as "Not Active," their resolution status is not explicitly documented in the available records. Historical complaints from the mid-1990s regarding severe ceiling leaks and flue issues were eventually resolved by 1996. Recent maintenance activities appear focused on exterior upkeep, with several 311 calls in 2024 primarily related to street cleaning and waste management issues, including reports of abandoned furniture and garbage on the property grounds, though these were mostly resolved promptly. The building's Tier 3 soft-story retrofit status indicates that seismic improvements have been completed and certified.

Risk rating

How 49-59 Beideman 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
57th percentile

Out of 167 buildings in this neighborhood, 72 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 age

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 59.3%
Moderate concern 21.5%
Severe concern 19.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
