Initial analysis

98 Parkridge Drive is a 20-unit, four-story multi-family residential building located in the Twin Peaks neighborhood. Built in 1979 and currently owned by the Cafferkey Family Trust, the building has undergone several significant improvements and faced various compliance challenges over its history. Most notably, the property completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $120,000, bringing it into compliance with San Francisco's seismic safety requirements. Recent fire safety concerns have emerged, with an open violation from December 2023 regarding sleeping area requirements, following a pattern of similar issues including problems with fire extinguishers, doors, emergency lighting, and alarm systems in recent years (2016-2023). Historical maintenance records show attention to various structural and safety issues, including a deck repair in 2006, garbage room ventilation improvements in 2001, and earlier concerns about roof leaks in the 1990s.

The building has experienced multiple regulatory interventions, including a 1988 project to bring three units into conformance with building codes, and a 1985 attempt to legalize all 20 units which was ultimately canceled. Various fire safety violations have been documented over the years, with the most recent being in December 2023, though many earlier violations (such as those from 2016 and 2007) have been resolved. The property has maintained active compliance with major safety requirements, including sprinkler system installation and regular fire system certifications, though recent complaints suggest ongoing attention to maintenance and safety systems is required. While the building has experienced periodic maintenance issues as evidenced by tenant complaints (most recently in 2024), many historic problems have been addressed through proper permits and repairs, suggesting a pattern of responsive management to both regulatory requirements and maintenance needs.

Risk rating

How 98 Parkridge Dr'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
48th percentile

Out of 172 buildings in this neighborhood, 89 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 28.3%
Moderate concern 46.6%
Severe concern 25.1%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
