Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 951 Clement Street in San Francisco's Inner Richmond district, owned by Cattarina Birgi Vandentoorn, is a two-story structure with a mixed-use designation (Flat & Store - 4 units or less) built in 1910. The property has undergone several significant improvements over recent years, most notably a complete reroofing project in 2024 costing $32,850. In 2019, there was a notable heating system issue reported by tenants, involving inadequate heat maintenance and power accessibility problems, which was officially abated in March 2019. The building underwent substantial accessibility improvements in 2005, including the installation of an ADA-compliant restroom and ramp, along with electrical upgrades to the ground-level restaurant area.

The property's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, with various permits for repairs and improvements, including fence repairs in 2008 and multiple responses to illegal postings and cleaning issues in recent months (2024). There have been several fire-related complaints over the years, particularly in 2022 regarding shared spaces, illegal occupancy, and blocked exits, though most were either deferred, referred to the Department of Building Inspection, or had conditions corrected. A fire systems certification violation from 2006 was closed. The building's location has experienced occasional issues with human or animal waste cleanup on public areas, as documented in multiple 311 calls from 2024, and there was one instance of a public stairway defect reported in May 2024.

Risk rating

How 951 Clement 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.
