Initial analysis

The two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building at 1201-1205 Willard Street, owned by Georgette Derdevanis Revoc, has undergone significant recent renovations and improvements. From late 2023 to 2024, the property has seen substantial interior upgrades, including a comprehensive second-floor remodel ($100,000) featuring entry, bathroom, living room, dining room, kitchen, laundry areas, and skylights, followed by electrical rewiring of the entire unit and associated plumbing work, including a shower pan installation and bathroom/kitchen remodels. The building's exterior maintenance continues with window replacements ($20,000) and historical records show previous improvements including a 2007 reroofing and a 1985 sun deck installation.

The property has maintained compliance with safety regulations, though there were multiple violations recorded in 2005 and 2011 related to security and fire safety equipment, including issues with self-closing doors and fire extinguishers. These violations were promptly addressed and abated. While there have been two recent fire-related incidents, both were determined to be non-threatening (one was a smoke detector malfunction and the other a good intent call). The surrounding area has experienced some external maintenance concerns as evidenced by multiple Recology service calls regarding overflowing garbage cans in late 2024, though these are related to city services rather than building operations. Historical routine housing inspections from 1999, 2005, and 2011 have been conducted, with all issues being resolved. The most recent building improvement permits and completed work reflect ongoing investment in maintaining and upgrading the property, with particular attention to modernizing systems and maintaining historical character through proper window replacements.

Risk rating

How 1201-1205 Willard 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
62th percentile

Out of 526 buildings in this neighborhood, 200 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 79.1%
Moderate concern 11.7%
Severe concern 9.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
