Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 319-323 Willard Street in Lone Mountain, owned by Fain Alexander & Yelizaveta, contains 4 units and was constructed in 1907. The property has undergone several renovations, with the most significant being a $20,000 kitchen remodel in 2018 that included cabinet replacement, electrical work, and plumbing updates, though these permits have since expired. Historical records show the building faced multiple safety and maintenance issues in the early 2000s, including violations related to fire safety equipment, smoke detectors, emergency exits, and wood stairs/decks, all of which were abated by June 2004. There were also heating system issues documented in 1995-1998, including complaints of inadequate heat and no heat conditions, though these were resolved.

More recently, there has been a pattern of waste management issues near the property, with nine reports of abandoned furniture and debris on the surrounding streets and sidewalks between May 2022 and January 2025, though all were resolved through various cleanup services. The most recent violation was for a blocking driveway complaint in July 2022, which was not enforced. The building's permit history shows regular maintenance and improvements, including a 2015 street space permit and a 2002 kitchen cabinet and shower renovation. While there were multiple safety concerns in the early 2000s, there have been no recorded building violations or safety inspections since 2004, suggesting an improved condition over the past two decades, though the recent pattern of debris and waste issues near the property is notable.

Risk rating

How 319-323 Willard 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

Model explanation

What's driving this score

Number of units

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.

No violation 60.7%
Moderate concern 16.7%
Severe concern 22.6%
