Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 509 Corbett Avenue in Twin Peaks, owned by the John & Germana Congi Family, was constructed in 1981 and is classified as a Flats & Duplex structure spanning two stories. The building's documented maintenance history includes two roofing projects: one from 1993 (issued) and another from 1997 (expired), though the current roof status is not documented in the provided data.

The property has experienced several maintenance and environmental issues in recent months, with the most significant being a sewer odor incident in October 2024 that required attention to the upper lateral system, though this was resolved. Other recent maintenance concerns include ongoing loose garbage reported in August 2023 (still open as of the latest data), and multiple instances of graffiti (February 2024 and July 2024) with one case showing no graffiti upon inspection. The area around the building has seen various municipal service interventions, including a Christmas tree removal in January 2024, parking enforcement in August 2024, and multiple sign repairs in July 2023 related to missing support for speed limit signs. Planning records indicate activity at neighboring addresses 511 and 515 Corbett Avenue, with approved variance and CEQA clearance for proposed multi-unit developments, though these are not directly related to 509 Corbett Avenue.

Risk rating

How 509 Corbett Ave'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 172 buildings in this neighborhood, 48 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 size

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

Property class: multi-family flat

2–4 unit flats (class F) are a common SF building type with their own maintenance and complaint patterns.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 44.7%
Moderate concern 17.2%
Severe concern 38.1%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
