Initial analysis

The property at 1116 Stanyan Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Parnassus/Ashbury Heights neighborhood. Built in 1908 and currently owned by Erin Fahy, this flats/duplex building has undergone significant renovations in recent years. Between 2020 and 2021, substantial improvement work was completed, including two major remodeling projects of kitchens and bathrooms in both units, with the most recent project involving the removal of a load-bearing wall between the kitchen and dining room. These renovations were accompanied by corresponding electrical and plumbing upgrades, including the installation of new wiring throughout the units and an upgrade to 200-amp service in April 2021. The building's maintenance history shows attention to essential systems, with records indicating roof work in 1996 and various interior improvements dating back to 1989, including kitchen and bathroom gutting and cabinet installations.

More recently, the property has experienced several environmental and maintenance challenges typical of urban settings. Between 2023 and 2024, there have been multiple incidents of graffiti (both offensive and general) on and around the building, though these were addressed and resolved through municipal channels. The area has also experienced some parking-related issues, including reports of illegal parking and abandoned vehicles, though these incidents were generally resolved by city enforcement agencies. Additionally, there have been several calls regarding loose garbage and general cleaning needs in the vicinity, indicating ongoing maintenance requirements for the building's surroundings. The property appears to be well-maintained in terms of major systems and infrastructure, with recent permits demonstrating compliance with current building standards and codes.

Risk rating

How 1116 Stanyan 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
97th percentile

Out of 526 buildings in this neighborhood, 16 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.

Neighborhood location

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

Building age

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

Permit rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building permit rate across the owner's portfolio.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 92.1%
Moderate concern 5.4%
Severe concern 2.4%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
