Initial analysis

The 6-story, 13-unit multi-family residential building at 1349 Clayton Street, owned by Kane/Peizer Living Trust and constructed in 1927, has undergone several significant improvements and faced recurring fire safety challenges over the years. Most recently, in July 2024, the building is undergoing fire alarm system modifications to meet San Francisco Fire Code requirements for sleeping areas, with associated electrical work continuing into late 2024. The property has experienced multiple fire alarm system issues, with complaints recorded in 2019, 2022 (twice), 2023, and 2024, though most were marked as "Condition Corrected" or "No Merit." A notable building violation was filed in 2002 regarding window replacements without proper permits, though this was abated by 2007. The building has seen substantial window improvements, with multiple permits between 2004 and 2010 showing replacement of steel windows with new vinyl windows, and the installation of a comprehensive fire alarm system in 2010 including multiple safety features.

The property has experienced various maintenance issues recently, including water leak incidents in December 2024 (with multiple 311 calls), and the most recent routine housing inspection in March 2023 remains marked as active. Historical maintenance work includes a complete reroofing of the garage in 2012. The building has documented some historical fire incidents, including a cooking fire (contained) and unintentional alarm activation, though no civilian injuries were reported in these events. Recent 311 calls between late 2024 to early 2025 show various street and sidewalk maintenance issues near the property, including reports of abandoned furniture, an appliance, and pavement defects, all of which have since been resolved.

Risk rating

How 1349 Clayton 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
5th percentile

Out of 40 buildings in this neighborhood, 38 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.

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 13.2%
Moderate concern 35.3%
Severe concern 51.5%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
