Initial analysis

The Kim Family Trust 2005 owns this 6-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building located at 676 Arguello Blvd in the Lone Mountain neighborhood, which was constructed in 1963. The building's maintenance history shows several significant safety and maintenance inspections, with the most recent routine safety inspection occurring in October 2016. This inspection revealed multiple fire safety concerns, including the need for fire extinguisher recharges, seismic bracing of the hot water heater, and the installation of carbon monoxide alarms, though these violations were all abated by November 2016. The building experienced some infrastructure work in the early 2000s, including a reroofing project in 2003 costing $7,500, and water damage repairs in 1993, though the roofing permit has since expired. Two earlier routine inspections in 2003 and 2009 had similarly identified fire safety issues, including problems with fire extinguishers, smoke detectors, emergency exits, and the fire-rated garage ceiling, as well as a clogged floor drain in the garage area, all of which were subsequently resolved. More recently, in 2022, there was a report of a collapsed sidewalk near the property, though this was determined not to match the reported address, and in 2021, there was an incident of graffiti on a fire police callbox that was eventually addressed by City services. The building appears to have maintained compliance after addressing all documented violations and completing required repairs, with no active violations currently on record.

Risk rating

How 676 Arguello Blvd'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 519 buildings in this neighborhood, 389 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 65.2%
Moderate concern 17.5%
Severe concern 17.3%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
