Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 769 Clayton Street in Haight-Ashbury, owned by Dennis W. Jackson and Shena Park, is a 2-story flats and duplex structure dating back to 1896. The property underwent significant renovation in 2019, with substantial improvements including interior remodeling on levels 2 and 3 (kitchen, three bathrooms), deck and stair repairs, electrical rewiring, plumbing updates (new furnace, fireplace, shower pans), and construction of a smaller roof deck at the rear. Total renovation costs were approximately $259,000, and all related permits have been completed successfully.

Historically, the building faced some maintenance challenges, particularly in 2011 with multiple sewer issues (four documented incidents in a short period) and sidewalk damage in 2010 caused by tree roots affecting multiple properties with a total area of 540 square feet. A rooftop deck replacement permit was also processed in 2019, and various historical repairs include wall patching in 1988 and reroofing in 2004. The property has had minimal issues in recent years, with only routine matters such as parking enforcement and street cleaning reported through the 311 system since 2016. Recent maintenance appears to have addressed past concerns, with no recurring issues noted in the building's recent history.

Risk rating

How 769 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.
