Initial analysis

The three-story, 6-unit multi-family residential building at 1430-1434 Waller Street in the Haight Ashbury neighborhood, built in 1904, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety events over its history. The building's most recent major maintenance work was a re-roofing project completed in 2013 at a cost of $9,680. A cluster of violations in 2003 related to security and fire safety highlighted various safety concerns, including issues with self-closing doors, security viewers, and fire-proofing materials, all of which were resolved by September 2003. The property has undergone regular routine inspections by Housing Inspection Services in 2003, 2008, 2018, and most recently in 2023, indicating ongoing monitoring of building conditions.

Recent activity around the property has primarily involved external maintenance issues and building surroundings management, with multiple reports of abandoned furniture and debris on the sidewalk between 2023-2024, as well as some parking enforcement issues. Seven fire-related incidents have been recorded, including a cooking fire, gas leak, and several alarm malfunctions, though none resulted in civilian injuries. Two sidewalk repair permits were issued in 2000 and 2008, and a hazardous materials incident involving liquids was reported and resolved in October 2023. The building's systems and safety features have required periodic attention, as evidenced by the historical pattern of violations and routine inspections, but there are currently no active violations on record.

Risk rating

How 1430-1434 Waller 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.
