Initial analysis

The Ryan Family Trust property at 1024-1026 Clayton Street is a three-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1910, located in the Buena Vista Park neighborhood. The building has undergone several significant renovations and improvements over the past decade, with the most recent work occurring in 2021, including bathroom remodels and window replacements. Between 2019-2021, multiple bathroom renovations were completed, along with a roof shingle replacement in 2019 due to dry rot and damage. A notable concern was a complaint in 2019 regarding unpermitted work and safety violations involving rear facade alterations, though this was later resolved.

The property has a history of drainage and gutter-related issues, with multiple complaints in 2003 about Dutch gutter connections and overflow problems affecting neighboring properties, though these violations were eventually abated. There were also concerns about unpermitted deck and stair construction in 2014, which led to further inspections and eventual compliance through proper permitting. Recent complaints from 2024 indicate ongoing issues with waste receptacle management and parking violations near the property, though these are not directly related to building safety or maintenance. A routine housing inspection in 2006 and a fire department investigation in 2021 showed no significant concerns, with the latter being deemed to have "No Merit." The building's maintenance record shows regular upkeep and modernization efforts by the current ownership, with most recent permits focusing on interior improvements and exterior aesthetic updates.

Risk rating

How 1024-1026 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 351 buildings in this neighborhood, 168 are predicted to be safer.
