Initial analysis

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 7915-7917 Geary Blvd in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood is a 2-story flats and duplex structure built in 1923, currently owned by the Nea Hanscomb 2007 Revocable Trust. The most recent significant development is the planned addition of a Junior ADU on the garage ground floor, as permitted in October 2022, which will include a kitchen, bathroom, living room, and sleeping area, though this project appears to have been duplicated in the permit records. Historically, the building underwent a major transformation in 1996 when it reverted from a single-family dwelling and underwent kitchen remodeling and rewiring, with a complete reroofing shortly thereafter. The building has experienced several maintenance issues over the years, including a noteworthy plumbing incident in 1998 involving sewer problems that were not fully resolved until 2009, and a recent sewage backup in September 2024.

The property has generated multiple 311 calls in recent months, particularly in late 2024, with recurring reports of garbage and debris on the street/sidewalk, though these were typically resolved promptly. There are also recent concerns about rodent/insect infestation (July 2024) and graffiti (November 2024). Several historical permits are on record, including a backyard fence installation (2000) and a water heater replacement (2009). A building complaint was filed in 2000 regarding construction work without proper permits, though this was quickly addressed the following day. A false fire alarm incident was recorded, though no civilian injuries were reported.

Risk rating

How 7915-7917 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 1040 buildings in this neighborhood, 21 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 permits, owner's portfolio

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

Building age

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 89.3%
Moderate concern 7.9%
Severe concern 2.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
