Initial analysis

The two-story multi-family residential building at 1215-1217 Shrader Street, located in the Parnassus/Ashbury Heights neighborhood, was constructed in 1908 and currently contains two units under the ownership of Sheri Andrews Mitchell Livi. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with the most recent major work including multiple window replacements in 2018-2019 (eight windows in 2018 and nine windows in 2017), reroofing with composition shingles in 2016, and structural modifications in 2014 involving the removal of interior support columns and installation of steel beams for additional parking. A notable complaint was filed in August 2016 regarding unsafe debris conditions during roof replacement, though this issue appears to have been resolved. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, including an electrical Ufer ground installation in 2014, and a near-complete window replacement program.

Recently, from December 2024 through January 2025, there have been multiple reports (nine in total) of overflowing city garbage cans in the vicinity, though these are municipal sanitation issues rather than building-specific problems. The property has experienced two documented alarm incidents with no fires or injuries reported: a smoke detector activation and a malfunctioning alarm system. Historical records show some ambitious proposed modifications that were ultimately not pursued, including a 2007 plan for excavation and extension work, and a 1999 proposal for a rear deck construction which expired before completion. The building has undergone various improvements over time, including a unit merger completed in 1999, which suggests thoughtful management of the property's historical features while addressing modern needs.

Risk rating

How 1215-1217 Shrader 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
76th percentile

Out of 526 buildings in this neighborhood, 126 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.

Building age

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 78.4%
Moderate concern 14.7%
Severe concern 6.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
