Initial analysis

1300 Irving Street is a 27-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building located in the Inner Sunset neighborhood, built in 1963 and currently owned by Hom Childrens Trust The. The building has undergone several significant safety-related improvements, including a completed soft-story retrofit in 2018 (cost: $88,000) and a recent fire system replacement project filed in February 2024 that includes mandatory horn installations to meet current fire code requirements. A substantial number of maintenance and system upgrades have been completed, including multiple boiler installations/replacements between 2011 and 2019, garage repairs in 2007, and various infrastructure improvements including backflow device installations.

Recent and recurring issues have been documented regarding building systems and maintenance. The most pressing concerns involve the elevator system, with multiple complaints in 2024 about extended outages affecting mobility for senior tenants. Heating system problems have been frequently reported, particularly during winter months, with complaints about insufficient heat in 2022-2023. The building has also experienced ventilation issues involving improper ducting and smoke migration between units, as well as code compliance concerns with stair railings. The property maintains an active building violation from October 2023 related to sleeping area requirements, though most historical violations from 2000-2001 were abated. The building's fire safety systems have required periodic attention, with multiple fire alarm system-related complaints between 2016 and 2024, most of which were promptly corrected.

Risk rating

How 1300 Irving 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 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 1478 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.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Building size

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 11.2%
Moderate concern 23.9%
Severe concern 64.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
