Initial analysis

The property at 805-809 Lyon Street is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1913, currently owned by Deborah Irene Mansfield. The building underwent significant improvements between 2012 and 2023, including the legalization of a third unit in 2012-2013 after addressing a violation of illegal occupancy, which involved installing a new fire sprinkler system and updating various utilities. Recent improvements include a comprehensive solar power system installation in late 2022 and early 2024 consisting of multiple solar panels, microinverters, and Tesla Powerwall equipment (totaling 17.1 kW DC size and associated electrical upgrades), demonstrating investment in sustainable energy infrastructure.

The building has received substantial maintenance and upgrades over the years, including a complete re-roofing in 2014, installation of vinyl siding in 2015, and various plumbing improvements including replacement of sewage lateral and installation of new water services. Several 311 calls related to the property were recorded between 2018 and 2025, primarily concerning external issues such as tree maintenance, graffiti, and parking violations, though none directly related to building safety or habitability concerns. The property's electrical and plumbing systems have been regularly updated to meet current codes, with the most recent permits indicating continued maintenance and improvements to both systems.

Risk rating

How 805-809 Lyon 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.
