Initial analysis

The 10-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 600-614 Ashbury Street in the Haight Ashbury neighborhood, owned by Sarah Anne Hunt, has undergone significant recent renovations and has some active maintenance issues. Most notably, in August 2023, comprehensive kitchen and bathroom upgrades were completed, including new cabinets, electrical work, and plumbing fixtures at a cost of $75,000. The building has shown consistent investment in improvements, with prior renovations in 2022 including kitchen and bathroom remodeling, and historical upgrades documenting various systems improvements from 2007-2019. The building successfully completed its soft-story retrofit (classified as Tier 4) and received the Certificate of Final Completion.

However, there are several pressing concerns affecting resident comfort and safety that require attention. The most significant issues stem from active housing complaints filed in 2022 and 2023, primarily involving window functionality and maintenance. The 2022 complaint (NOV 202290442) noted multiple window-related problems including glazing seal repairs, sash frame repairs, cord repairs, and hardware issues, while the 2023 routine inspection remains open. Additionally, there were historical complaints regarding ventilation and smoke issues in 1996-2014. The building experienced multiple fire alarm system malfunctions in recent years, though none resulted in civilian injuries. Recent 311 calls from late 2024 have documented various exterior issues including graffiti and debris concerns, while a 2023 housing inspection is still pending resolution.

Risk rating

How 600-614 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
14th percentile

Out of 581 buildings in this neighborhood, 500 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.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

Number of units

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 45.8%
Moderate concern 35.4%
Severe concern 18.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
