Initial analysis

The 12-unit, 4-story multi-family residential building at 625 Shrader Street in the Haight Ashbury neighborhood, built in 1924, has undergone several significant upgrades and faced various challenges over its history. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory seismic retrofit in 2016 as a Tier 3 soft-story building, which included substantial ground floor reinforcements and new foundation elements at a cost of $80,000. The property has experienced multiple fire safety improvements, including a fire alarm system upgrade in 2006 and routine fire safety inspections in 2017 and 2022 that required corrective actions for alarm systems and fire extinguishers, all of which were addressed promptly.

The building's history includes several concerning incidents, such as a water intrusion and mold issue in 2004, and a significant incident in 2003 involving falling stucco from the building's front onto a fire escape. A major cluster of violations was recorded in 2003 related to fire safety and building maintenance, including issues with fire escapes, fire extinguishers, gas meter ventilation, and lead paint concerns, all of which were resolved by February 2004. The property has also had various structural improvements including the installation of sun-decks in 1984 and 1985, and solar panels in 1983, though some permits for these works expired. Recent years have shown regular building inspections (2017, 2023) and prompt attention to maintenance issues, including a 2009 inspection regarding an unpermitted electric gate that was subsequently addressed. The property has experienced minimal fire-related incidents, with only non-injurious situations such as smoke scares and gas leak responses recorded. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to external matters like street cleaning and graffiti rather than building-specific issues, suggesting improved maintenance and response to resident concerns.

Risk rating

How 625 Shrader 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
6th percentile

Out of 581 buildings in this neighborhood, 546 are predicted to be safer.
