Initial analysis

The 8-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 2645 Market Street in Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights, owned by Oliva Fortunata L Est Of, was constructed in 1964 and has undergone several significant safety upgrades in recent years. Most notably, in 2023 and continuing into 2024, the building is undergoing mandatory fire alarm system upgrades to comply with California State Fire Marshal requirements, including the installation of low-frequency horns and a wireless radio communicator across multiple units. The building has experienced recurring fire safety concerns, including a fire escape issue in 2023 that was promptly corrected, and multiple fire-related complaints in 2021 regarding combustible materials, blocked exits, and an unspecified concern, though all were determined to have no merit or were corrected.

Historical records show various maintenance and improvement work, including a reroofing project completed in 1999, termite damage repair in 1998, the installation of aluminum windows in 1992, and the addition of wall heaters in four units in 2008. The building has undergone routine housing inspections, with a notable inspection in 2002 revealing multiple issues that were all promptly abated within weeks, including egress obstructions at fire escapes and gas utility shutoff requirements. Recent 311 calls from late 2024 have primarily involved external issues such as street cleaning and graffiti concerns, which were addressed by city services. While the building's maintenance history shows regular attention to safety and compliance issues, the recurring nature of fire system upgrades and the brief period of fire escape concerns in 2023 highlight ongoing safety system improvements and challenges.

Risk rating

How 2645 Market 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
20th percentile

Out of 1278 buildings in this neighborhood, 1022 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.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 49.2%
Moderate concern 30.6%
Severe concern 20.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
