Initial analysis

The Wong Family Trust owns this two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located at 1031-1033 Lincoln Way in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood. Built in 1904, the property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most recent being a $14,000 reroofing project completed in 2021. The building's infrastructure has received attention, including the installation of underground electrical conduits and termination can for PG&E service in 2005, marking a transition from overhead to underground power supply. Historical modifications include a completed bedroom and bathroom construction project in 1986, which involved enclosing a porch area.

The property has experienced various maintenance and quality-of-life issues in the surrounding area, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls. Recent incidents in 2023 include reports of loose garbage and a damaged tree, while previous years have seen recurring issues such as graffiti on street poles (2017, 2019) and a residential building (2016). The exterior maintenance needs have been addressed through city services, with all recorded cases being resolved. A notable incident involving street cleaning was reported in October 2022, and a March 2019 call concerning an abandoned vehicle was resolved when the vehicle complied with parking laws shortly after the complaint was filed.

Risk rating

How 1031-1033 Lincoln Way'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, 299 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.

Building age

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Building permits, owner's portfolio

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 81.8%
Moderate concern 12.9%
Severe concern 5.3%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
