Initial analysis

The 10-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 40 Perego Terrace in Twin Peaks, owned by Gaehwiler 2000 Tr, was constructed in 1967 and has undergone several significant safety upgrades over the past decades. Most recently, in 2023, the building received substantial fire alarm system improvements costing $26,059 to add new sounders in compliance with current fire safety standards, along with an electrical upgrade to meet modern codes. The building successfully completed its mandatory soft-story seismic retrofit, classified as Tier 3, and has actively addressed various fire safety concerns, including recent violations related to sleeping area requirements (November 2023) and previous issues with alarms, doors, and sprinkler maintenance (all abated as of September 2020). Multiple fire safety inspections and complaints between 2020 and 2024 have been documented, with recent complaints in 2024 regarding alarm systems and extinguishers being found to have "No Merit" or "Condition Corrected."

The building's maintenance history shows attention to infrastructure improvements, including window replacements and stucco repairs in 1995, a furnace replacement in 2019, and gas piping repairs in 2018. While the building had multiple fire safety violations in 2003 related to handrails, egress obstruction, smoke enclosure doors, and combustible storage, these were all abated by February 2004, and more recent routine inspections have not indicated similar persistent issues. The property has experienced intermittent complaints regarding various building systems and external issues, such as parking enforcement matters, with the most recent 311 calls primarily related to parking violations and street maintenance concerns as of 2023-2024. A routine housing inspection conducted in March 2023 is currently marked as "Active."

Risk rating

How 40 Perego 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
52th percentile

Out of 172 buildings in this neighborhood, 83 are predicted to be safer.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.
