Initial analysis

The 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1403-1409 Anza Street in San Francisco's Inner Richmond neighborhood, owned by Bfam Investments Llc, has a recorded history dating back to its 1922 construction. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with the most recent major works including a water heater replacement in 2021 and reroofing in 2020 (cost: $11,800). A substantial sewer line upgrade was completed in 2017, and the building had an electrical system upgrade in 2004 that included installing a 200-amp main service with five meters. The property has faced some maintenance challenges, including a notable dry-rot repair project in 2010 involving approximately 60 square feet of siding work at the rear of the building (cost: $2,000).

The building has undergone several routine safety inspections, with a significant fire safety violation recorded in 2010 regarding combustible storage, which was abated by October 2011. There have been multiple tenant buyouts on record, including two tenants receiving $55,000 in May 2021 for the unit at 1409 Anza Street. The property has experienced recurring issues with garbage and debris, particularly in late 2024, with multiple reports of abandoned items and general waste on the premises, though these matters were all resolved through appropriate channels. While there has been one recorded false fire alarm incident, it resulted in no civilian injuries. The building's permit history demonstrates regular maintenance and upgrades, suggesting ongoing attention to property upkeep, though the frequency of recent garbage-related issues indicates some challenges with waste management in the immediate vicinity.

Risk rating

How 1403-1409 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

Out of 1723 buildings in this neighborhood, 1120 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 69.2%
Moderate concern 16.8%
Severe concern 14.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
