Initial analysis

The 4-unit apartment building at 4262-4264 24th Street in Noe Valley, owned by Hank H Chen Bypass Trust, is a 2-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1905. The property has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, including the installation of gas-efficient furnaces in 2018 for Units 3 and 4, along with related electrical upgrades, demonstrating ongoing maintenance and modernization efforts by the ownership. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to both interior and exterior conditions, with permits from the 1980s showing kitchen and bathroom remodels, though these are now quite dated.

The building has experienced several documented issues over the years, particularly in 2015 when a routine inspection revealed multiple safety concerns including fire extinguisher issues, combustible storage, missing handrails, and the need for a gas utility shutoff tool - though all these violations were eventually abated. A 2006 complaint identified several interior surface issues including lead paint concerns, damaged paint, and window repairs that were also resolved. More recent concerns include a flooding incident in March 2023 and a damaged sidewalk issue from 2020, though these appear to have been addressed promptly. The property has experienced some recurring issues with parking violations in the surrounding area, with multiple reports of driveway blocking between 2019 and 2023, and a persistent tree root issue affecting the sidewalk noted in 2020. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to external matters such as parking violations, sidewalk maintenance, and street cleaning needs, rather than building-specific concerns.

Risk rating

How 4262-4264 24Th 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 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 1353 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.

Neighborhood location

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

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 58.5%
Moderate concern 20.5%
Severe concern 21.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
