Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 725-729 Clayton Street in Haight Ashbury, owned by John D. Moriarty 2012 Revocable Trust, is a 3-story flats and duplex structure built in 1913. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and safety-related updates over the years, most notably including a complete sewer lateral replacement in September 2023 and repairs for dry rot at the front stairs in 2022. Historical records show a comprehensive compliance update was completed in 1989, and a reroofing project was undertaken in 2004.

The building experienced a cluster of violations in 2002 that were promptly addressed by August of that year, including issues related to gas meter safety requirements, water heater concerns, and a rear passageway door. A routine apartment house inspection in 2006 generated no ongoing issues. While there has been one recorded gas leak incident, no civilian injuries were reported. The property has had multiple 311 calls in recent years (2018-2024), primarily related to street cleaning and waste management issues outside the building, though these are generally not reflective of building conditions. Recent exterior maintenance appears to have addressed structural concerns, with the most recent significant internal systems work being the sewer lateral replacement in 2023.

Risk rating

How 725-729 Clayton 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.
