Initial analysis

This two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building, located at 179 Clifford Terrace in the Buena Vista Park neighborhood, was constructed in 1964 and is currently owned by Angelo Sangiacomo Marital T. The building has undergone two documented roof replacements, one in 1996 and another in 2005, though both permits have since expired. A significant cluster of building violations arose in May 2002, including issues with shutoff valves, water heaters, egress obstructions, and other plumbing concerns, all of which were eventually resolved by March 2004. A more recent routine inspection in May 2017 resulted in additional documentation requirements that were addressed by June 2017.

In recent years, the property has experienced recurring issues with illegal parking, particularly with vehicles blocking the sidewalk, evidenced by multiple 311 calls between 2022 and 2025. There have also been instances of garbage and debris concerns, including furniture issues in July 2024 and a litter receptacle maintenance request in June 2024 that remains open. While the building has had several documented violations in the past, records indicate that these issues have generally been addressed when brought to the owner's attention. The most recent building-related activities primarily involve exterior maintenance and compliance with city regulations, though no major structural or safety violations have been recorded in recent years.

Risk rating

How 179 Clifford Ter'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
41th percentile

Out of 351 buildings in this neighborhood, 207 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.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 63.9%
Moderate concern 17.1%
Severe concern 19.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
