Initial analysis

The three-story, 8-unit apartment building at 775 Corbett Avenue in Twin Peaks, managed by Corvi Edward G Living Trust, has undergone significant modifications since its 1972 construction, most notably converting basement spaces into additional dwelling units and completing mandatory soft-story seismic retrofitting as a Tier 3 building. The property's recent history (2015-present) shows substantial investment in safety and modernization, including comprehensive fire safety system upgrades in 2018-2019 (new sprinklers, fire alarms, low-frequency sounders), exterior stair construction, and window improvements in 2023. However, there are pressing concerns requiring attention: multiple active housing violations from July 2024 relate to sanitation, water damage, kitchen repairs, building permits, and safety requirements (including smoke detectors and exterior doors). There is also an active complaint from September 2024 regarding unauthorized construction work involving ceiling and window modifications. The building has experienced recurring issues with its fire safety systems, evidenced by multiple fire violations and complaints between 2017-2022, though these were generally corrected promptly.

The property underwent major transformations between 2016-2017, adding two accessory dwelling units (Units 7 and 8) and improving overall safety through seismic retrofitting, while maintaining compliance with San Francisco's housing regulations. Historical records show the building has previously faced challenges with illegal units (1996-2004), which appear to have been resolved through proper permitting. Recent maintenance work includes HVAC system updates (furnace replacement in 2018) and plumbing improvements, though there are currently some unresolved issues based on recent housing complaints and violations. The building's location has experienced periodic environmental challenges, as evidenced by recent 311 calls regarding garbage, debris, and sewage issues in late 2024, as well as sidewalk blockages from construction materials. These external maintenance matters, while not directly related to building safety or habitability, indicate ongoing property management challenges.

Risk rating

How 775 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
70th percentile

Out of 172 buildings in this neighborhood, 52 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.

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 48.5%
Moderate concern 29.9%
Severe concern 21.6%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
