Initial analysis

The property at 212 Collingwood Street is a 3-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building located in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood. Built in 1900 and currently owned by Ivan O Delventhal, this building has undergone numerous renovations and faced several regulatory challenges over the years. Significant historical improvements include rear cottage renovation in 1987, multiple roof repairs in 1986, and staircase repairs in 1986. However, the building has experienced recurring issues with illegal construction and unauthorized dwelling units between 1986 and 2012, particularly concerning the rear building and basement apartment.

More concerning are the recent fire safety issues, with multiple fire code violations documented between 2019 and 2024, including an open violation as of October 2024 relating to emergency lighting, maintenance documentation, and roof exit. The building has also faced structural challenges, notably when weather-damaged rear stairs and deck were removed in 1994. Recent activity around the property shows ongoing maintenance challenges, with numerous 311 calls in 2023-2024 regarding street sanitation issues, though these primarily relate to public space rather than the building itself. The property's inspection history shows a pattern of addressing violations, with many being abated after citation, though two fire safety violations from October 2024 remain open as of now.

Risk rating

How 212 Collingwood 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

Out of 1278 buildings in this neighborhood, 716 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.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Building age

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

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 57.3%
Moderate concern 26.4%
Severe concern 16.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
