Initial analysis

The three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 661-665 Ashbury Street in the Haight Ashbury neighborhood was constructed in 1904 and is currently owned by Kenneth and Eugenia Sasloff R. The building's maintenance history shows several significant infrastructure updates over the years, including a sewer/housetrap replacement and street space work completed in 2019, installation of a new gas line in 2014, and a water heater replacement in 2007. The property experienced a cluster of building violations in 2006 that were addressed by May 2007, which included issues with weatherproofing on siding, ladder repairs, lead-based paint concerns, and security lock modifications - all of which were subsequently abated.

The building has undergone several routine housing inspections between 2000 and 2014, with records showing proper addressing of identified issues. Recent maintenance activity outside the building has primarily centered around graffiti removal, with multiple incidents reported in 2024, though most have been promptly addressed by city services. The surrounding area has seen periodic reports of garbage and debris issues on the street and sidewalk, with the most recent incidents occurring in October 2024. The property has a documented history of street space usage permits from 2013 and 2019, suggesting regular engagement with city services for public space management.

Risk rating

How 661-665 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
52th percentile

Out of 581 buildings in this neighborhood, 279 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.

Building age

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

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 37.4%
Moderate concern 13.6%
Severe concern 49.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
