Initial analysis

The three-story, nine-unit multi-family residential building at 147 Crown Terrace in Clarendon Heights, owned by Darren & Valerie H Lee Revo and built in 1951, has undergone several significant improvements and renovations over the past decades. Most recently, in 2024, the building completed a mandatory fire alarm system upgrade to comply with SFFC requirements at a cost of $32,300, and is currently scheduled for reroofing work costing $8,500. The building previously completed a soft-story retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $25,000, demonstrating compliance with seismic safety requirements.

The property has a history of both unit-specific and building-wide improvements, including several apartment renovations (Units 2, 3, 5, 6, and 8) involving kitchen and bathroom updates between 2008 and 2022. However, there are several active concerns that warrant attention, particularly a cluster of fire safety violations from January 2024 regarding combustible storage, lead paint concerns, and sprinkler system issues. The building has experienced multiple fire safety inspections and violations over the years, with the most recent being in October 2024 regarding alarm systems, though most previous violations have been corrected. The property was previously involved in illegal short-term rental activity, which has since been resolved through a settlement agreement. Recent 311 calls from December 2024 to January 2025 indicate ongoing issues with garbage and debris management around the property, though most of these cases have been resolved.

Risk rating

How 147 Crown Ter'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
2th percentile

Out of 40 buildings in this neighborhood, 39 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.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 15.6%
Moderate concern 64.1%
Severe concern 20.3%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
