Initial analysis

The 703-705 Baker Street property, owned by Nazzal Living Trust, is a three-story, seven-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1929 in the Park North neighborhood. The building has undergone several significant infrastructure improvements over the past decade, including a complete sewer lateral replacement (2024), installation of a hydronic heating system (2015), and an electrical service upgrade to 400 amps (2021). Historical maintenance records show earlier improvements such as window replacements (1998) and reroofing work (1995), though some permits from this period have either expired or were completed many years ago.

The building has experienced several routine safety inspections and housing code compliance issues, particularly noted in 2002 and 2009, though all violations were abated in a timely manner. These included fire safety concerns such as the need for fire extinguishers, sprinklers, and smoke detector repairs, as well as ADA compliance issues like exterior door self-closing devices. Recent inspections from 2017 did not indicate ongoing safety concerns. The property has also generated multiple 311 calls in early 2025 regarding garbage issues, with several reports of overflowing city garbage cans, though these were typically resolved quickly. Planning records indicate that the property has received various approvals for business use, including Type 21 liquor licenses in conjunction with grocery use. Notably, there have been no recorded fire-related injuries, though there have been several fire alarm activations and minor incidents as documented by fire response records, with most incidents being either false alarms or related to external factors.

Risk rating

How 703-705 Baker 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
16th percentile

Out of 797 buildings in this neighborhood, 669 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.

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 42.3%
Moderate concern 35.9%
Severe concern 21.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
