Initial analysis

65-67 Scott Street is a three-story, five-unit multi-family residential building located in Hayes Valley and owned by Quercus Properties LLC. Built in 1904, this property has undergone several significant upgrades and faced various challenges over the years. Most recently, in 2024, a rodent infestation was reported and addressed, though complaints indicate ongoing issues with pest management. The building's seismic safety compliance has been a recurring theme, with violations related to the mandatory Soft Story Retrofit Program documented in 2014, 2017, and 2021, though records indicate completion of Tier 3 requirements. Significant safety improvements were made in 2020 with the installation of a new fire alarm system ($20,000) to comply with current codes, and the addition of a fire sprinkler system for an ADU in 2019 ($7,000) demonstrated ongoing safety enhancements.

The property has seen various construction and improvement projects, including a first-floor studio remodel in 2019 ($50,000), multiple plumbing upgrades for fireplaces, and electrical work including rewiring of Unit #1 in 2019. Historical violations from 2005 related to fire safety and building maintenance issues were addressed and abated, though there was a complaint about mold on an interior wall in 2017. Recent infrastructure maintenance issues have been minimal, with only a missing side sewer vent cover reported in 2024. The building's management has faced criticism for responsiveness to maintenance issues, particularly regarding pest control, according to tenant complaints. The property has maintained compliance with building codes since the resolution of the 2021 Soft Story violations, with no active violations currently on record.

Risk rating

How 65-67 Scott 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.
