Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 717-719 Moraga Street in Golden Gate Heights, currently owned by the Jose R Escobar Survivors Trust, has experienced several notable maintenance and safety events since its construction in 1960. The most recent work includes a re-roofing project initiated in May 2024 with a cost of $14,000. The building has undergone significant improvements to its infrastructure, including a substantial kitchen renovation in 2012 that involved cabinet replacement, electrical upgrades, and plumbing work for new appliances, followed by the installation of a new 40-gallon gas water heater in December 2007. A major structural improvement was completed in 2007 with foundation underpinning work valued at $76,600.

The property has generated multiple 311 calls in the recent past, particularly in late 2024, with concerns primarily related to sidewalk conditions, parking issues, and street maintenance matters. Of particular note are ongoing sidewalk defect issues, with one case from September 2024 regarding lifted sidewalk caused by tree roots that remains open as of the latest report. There was also one incident involving a smoke detector activation with no fire in 2024, and several parking enforcement cases including citations for sidewalk parking. While the building's maintenance record shows regular upkeep through various permits, including the upcoming roofing work, the recent history reveals some infrastructure challenges in the immediate vicinity, particularly regarding sidewalk conditions and street maintenance.

Risk rating

How 717-719 Moraga 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 32 buildings in this neighborhood, 3 are predicted to be safer.
