Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 451-453 Belvedere Street, located in the Parnassus/Ashbury Heights neighborhood, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1913 and currently owned by the Dorothy I Revocable Trust. The property has undergone several significant infrastructure improvements over the years, with the most recent substantial maintenance being a comprehensive sewer replacement using trenchless technology completed in September 2020. Other notable improvements include a water heater replacement in 2016, window replacements in 1997, and foundation reinforcement work with plywood application on the ground floor in 1997. The building received a roofing upgrade in 2005, though this permit has since expired, and multiple street-space related permits were issued between 2009-2010.

Recent issues in the vicinity of the property, particularly in 2024, have been predominantly related to parking violations, including several instances of sidewalk parking and other illegal parking complaints, though many of these were unable to be verified by responding officers. There are also some environmental concerns in the immediate area, including reports of garbage and debris and a graffiti incident, all of which have been resolved. Two infrastructure-related complaints remain open as of 2024, including a curb defect reported in July 2023 and a stop sign issue reported in November 2024, though neither directly impacts the building's condition. The property's maintenance history suggests regular upkeep of essential systems, with the most recent major infrastructure work focusing on plumbing systems.

Risk rating

How 451-453 Belvedere 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 526 buildings in this neighborhood, 184 are predicted to be safer.
