Initial analysis

The Varela Family Trust owns this two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building located at 223-225 Roosevelt Way in Corona Heights, which was constructed in 1906 and is classified as a Flats & Duplex property. The building's maintenance history includes several significant renovation projects from 1990, when two bathrooms in the top and middle flats were remodeled, and bathroom and kitchen fixtures were replaced. A reroofing project was completed in 2004 at a cost of $11,700. The property has experienced multiple inspections and compliance issues over the years, with three separate investigations into possible illegal units between 2003 and 2008, though these complaints are no longer active. A routine housing inspection was conducted in 2009-2010, and another routine inspection occurred in 2002.

Recent building challenges include a sewage backup incident in 2014 (which was resolved), and various maintenance issues affecting the surrounding area. The most pressing current concern is a lifted sidewalk issue reported in February 2023 that remains open. The building's location has experienced several external challenges, such as graffiti removal in 2022, tree root damage to sidewalks (2017), and overgrown tree issues (2016), all of which have been addressed. The property has also seen various neighborhood maintenance calls including scooter service requests, trash dumping, and street maintenance concerns, though these are generally related to public spaces rather than the building itself. While the building's major systems have received periodic attention through permits and inspections, the persistent nature of some external issues suggests ongoing maintenance concerns in the surrounding environment.

Risk rating

How 223-225 Roosevelt 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
29th percentile

Out of 348 buildings in this neighborhood, 247 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.

Property class: multi-family flat

2–4 unit flats (class F) are a common SF building type with their own maintenance and complaint patterns.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

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 63.9%
Moderate concern 22.8%
Severe concern 13.3%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
