Initial analysis

The 5-unit multi-family residential building at 1600-1610 Anza Street in the Inner Richmond, owned by Juan Carlos Guerrero, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1910. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2016-2017, which included engineering upgrades costing $100,000, installation of new shear walls, removal and replacement of water heaters, and associated plumbing and electrical work. The retrofit project also involved replacing six Federal Pacific panels and garage wiring to accommodate seismic safety improvements. In 2005, the property underwent extensive renovations including bathroom and kitchen remodeling across multiple units, addition of a basement laundry room (though this permit expired), and significant electrical upgrades including new sub-panels, lights, and switches.

The building's history shows previous fire safety concerns, with multiple violations documented in 2003 related to fire escape maintenance, combustible storage, and fire extinguisher requirements. However, these violations were officially abated by March 2005. A complaint regarding unpermitted interior remodeling was filed and resolved in 2005. Recent activity at the property has mainly consisted of parking-related issues, with multiple citations issued between 2024 and 2025 for illegal parking, driveway blocking, and parking on sidewalks, though these are external rather than building-specific concerns. The building's soft-story retrofit completion has been acknowledged with a Certificate of Final Completion, indicating the major seismic safety improvements have been properly finalized and inspected.

Risk rating

How 1600-1610 Anza 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
22th percentile

Out of 1723 buildings in this neighborhood, 1344 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

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 64.3%
Moderate concern 17.5%
Severe concern 18.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
