Initial analysis

The 12-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 1395 10th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood, owned by Michael Keating, was constructed in 1926 and has undergone several significant improvements over its lifetime. Most notably, the building completed mandatory seismic improvements as a Tier 3 soft-story retrofit in 2017, with a documented investment of $84,000. Subsequent safety enhancements included the installation of new water storage tanks with associated piping in 2019 and a ground electrode installation in 2018. The building has experienced several routine housing inspections, with a significant cluster of violations documented in 2010 related to various interior and exterior conditions, including damaged walls, windows, and weatherproofing, all of which were subsequently addressed. Earlier violations from a 2001 inspection concerning fire safety and egress were promptly abated within one month.

The property has maintained its basic infrastructure, as evidenced by historical permits for reroofing in 1993 and code compliance work in 1986. While there have been multiple fire alarm activations and carbon monoxide detector tests in recent years, none resulted in actual incidents or injuries. The building's location has generated a number of parking-related complaints in recent months (December 2024), along with some street maintenance issues that have been resolved, indicating typical urban neighborhood challenges. The most recent building-related permit activity shows ongoing attention to maintenance and safety compliance, with no active violations on record as of the latest data.

Risk rating

How 1395 10Th Ave'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
3th percentile

Out of 1493 buildings in this neighborhood, 1448 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.

Neighborhood location

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 9.1%
Moderate concern 34.0%
Severe concern 56.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
