Initial analysis

The 12-unit multi-family residential building at 430-432 Warren Drive, located in Forest Knolls and built in 1961, has undergone several significant structural and safety improvements over recent years. Most notably, the property experienced a serious incident in 2021 when Unit #1 suffered fire damage, followed by water and smoke damage, requiring extensive repairs that were completed in 2022 at a cost of $130,000. This renovation included comprehensive updates to the bathroom and kitchen, along with associated plumbing and electrical work. In terms of seismic safety, the building completed mandatory soft-story retrofit work in 2017 (at a cost of $84,000), achieving compliance with San Francisco building codes.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to basic infrastructure, including a roof replacement in 1992 (completed) and a 2021 main lateral repair project. The property has undergone routine housing inspections over the years, with a significant cluster of violations noted in 2003 related to fire safety (including stair repairs and egress obstruction) and missing smoke enclosure door closers, though these were abated by August 2003. While the building has had several graffiti incidents and garbage/cleanup issues reported through 311 calls, these are generally not indicative of systemic problems. The most recent building-related issues primarily revolve around exterior maintenance and debris cleanup rather than structural or safety concerns. The current ownership, under S&p Ng Fmly Tr 2007, has demonstrated compliance with major safety requirements such as the soft-story retrofit program, which is now complete and certified.

Risk rating

How 430-432 Warren Dr'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.
