Initial analysis

The 1726 Grove Street property is a two-story, 6-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1921, currently owned by Albert Mora. The building's recent history between December 2024 and January 2025 has been dominated by parking enforcement issues, with multiple citations issued for sidewalk parking violations, totaling eight enforcement actions, six of which resulted in citations. A tree-related incident was reported and resolved in December 2024.

The building has undergone several inspections and faced various safety-related issues over the years. A significant cluster of violations was documented in August 2004, including concerns about fire safety (e.g., fire escape maintenance, combustible storage, fire extinguisher maintenance, and dryer lint removal), security (e.g., electrical receptacle cover plates), and earthquake preparedness (hot water heater seismic bracing). All these violations were officially abated by October 20, 2004. A routine housing inspection took place in July 2017, and prior to that, a permit violation regarding unauthorized roofing work was reported and resolved in September 2003. The only other routine inspection on record was from December 2000, which focused on the building's exterior.

Risk rating

How 1726 Grove 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
47th percentile

Out of 797 buildings in this neighborhood, 422 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

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 55.2%
Moderate concern 22.3%
Severe concern 22.6%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
