Initial analysis

The 8-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 1880 Fell Street in Park North, owned by Rdh Properties LLC, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1974. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $100,000, bringing it into compliance with seismic safety requirements. Recent maintenance includes a sewer and house trap replacement completed in April 2024, and in 2018, the building underwent exterior improvements with the replacement of damaged shingles with cedar horizontal siding.

The building has a history of addressing safety concerns, including a cluster of violations in April 2003 related to fire safety and building maintenance, all of which were resolved by May 22, 2003. These violations included issues with the central alarm system, garage storage, water heater ventilation, and smoke enclosure door closers. Historical records show earlier renovations including bathroom remodeling in 1993 and reroofing in 1991. The property has been active in maintaining communication with city services, with multiple 311 calls in recent years primarily related to park structural maintenance and graffiti issues in the vicinity, though these are external to the building itself. The property's current status shows all major structural and safety requirements have been addressed, with the soft-story retrofit considered complete and a Certificate of Final Completion (CFC) issued.

Risk rating

How 1880 Fell 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
