Initial analysis

The 14-unit multi-family residential building at 6324 Geary Boulevard, owned by Mercy Housing Corporation, is a 3-story structure built in 1963 that has undergone several significant upgrades and maintenance work over the past two decades. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2016-2019 (Tier 2) with associated permits totaling over $130,000, including structural revisions and compliance with San Francisco building codes. The property has experienced multiple water damage incidents, most recently in 2019 affecting kitchens on the 2nd and 3rd floors, resulting in substantial repair work ($87,694) and plumbing modifications. The building has maintained compliance with fire safety requirements, having installed sprinklers and water flow devices in 2008, though there have been periodic fire system-related complaints and violations including those regarding exit maintenance, sprinkler systems, and alarm systems between 2018-2024, with most issues being resolved promptly.

The property underwent significant improvements to address safety and accessibility concerns, including the installation of grab bars in 2014-2017 to comply with building codes. Historical records indicate various maintenance issues were addressed, such as window repairs (2012), window leak prevention measures (2007), and water heater replacement (2015). The building has experienced routine fire safety inspections revealing mostly minor violations, with records showing prompt corrective actions being taken in most cases. Recent history (2022-2024) shows minimal internal building issues, with most recent 311 calls relating to external matters such as encampments, graffiti, and noise, rather than building-specific concerns. The most recent fire safety complaints from 2024 and 2023 relate to exit maintenance and sprinkler systems, indicating ongoing monitoring of fire safety systems, though many of these complaints are resolved as "Condition Corrected" or marked as having "No Merit."

Risk rating

How 6324 Geary Blvd'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.
