Initial analysis

The three-story, two-unit multi-family residential building at 410-412 Ashbury Street, owned by the Bruce C Spikell Trust, has undergone several significant maintenance and repair projects since its construction in 1900. Most recently, in 2021, the property had sections of its deteriorated egress stairs replaced at a cost of $12,500, and in 2022 there was an emergency replacement of a broken house trap. The building has had multiple roofing projects, with the latest in 2018 involving an in-kind replacement with new materials, following earlier roofing work in 2001 and 2002. A notable historical incident occurred in 1996 when a complaint was filed regarding possible illegal apartments, though the status eventually became not active by 2001.

The property has experienced several infrastructure and maintenance issues in recent years, including a tree root problem damaging the sidewalk (reported in November 2023) and multiple instances of sidewalk parking violations in early 2023. The building's current and past maintenance records show regular upkeep, with particular attention to egress safety and roofing systems, though there was an attempt (and subsequent denial) in 1999 to obtain a variance for an allegedly illegal unit in the rear setback area without required parking. Recent 311 reports around the property have mostly concerned external issues like graffiti, parking violations, and street maintenance, suggesting ongoing challenges with the property's immediate environment, though these do not directly reflect on the building's internal conditions or management.

Risk rating

How 410-412 Ashbury 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
89th percentile

Out of 581 buildings in this neighborhood, 64 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 age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Property class: multi-family flat

2–4 unit flats (class F) are a common SF building type with their own maintenance and complaint patterns.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 66.3%
Moderate concern 18.3%
Severe concern 15.5%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
