AI summary

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 611-617 Frederick Street in the Parnassus/Ashbury Heights neighborhood was constructed in 1907 and is owned by Lawrence and Eileen Burgheimer. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most recent major work being a re-roofing project completed in 2017 at a cost of $9,500, and the installation of a new furnace in the attic in the same year. The building had substantial electrical upgrades in 2010, including the installation of a 250-amp main service, though an initial electrical service upgrade permit from 90-amp to 250-amp was cancelled. Earlier improvements included a kitchen renovation in 2010 with new cabinets and exhaust hood installation, and plumbing work including sink replacement in the kitchen.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to safety systems, particularly with fire safety equipment, though there were several violations noted between 2003-2008 related to fire extinguisher maintenance, exterior door self-closing devices, and gas meter instructions, all of which have been marked as abated. Recent activity around the property as of 2024-2025 includes some ongoing maintenance issues such as pavement defects and graffiti concerns, though these are external to the building itself. The property has experienced multiple parking enforcement calls in the vicinity, indicating regular monitoring of street parking compliance. While the building's major systems have received upgrades and improvements over the years, the property has not had any building code violations or serious safety incidents recorded in recent years, with the last housing inspection occurring in 2008 showing routine compliance issues that were subsequently resolved.

Risk rating

How 611-617 Frederick 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
44th percentile

Out of 526 buildings in this neighborhood, 295 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Property class: multi-family flat

2–4 unit flats (class F) are a common SF building type with their own maintenance and complaint patterns.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 64.8%
Moderate concern 18.3%
Severe concern 17.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
