Initial analysis

The 8-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 334-336 Claremont Boulevard in West Portal, owned by the Hillebrandt Survivors Trust, was constructed in 1929 and is currently classified as non-compliant with San Francisco's soft-story retrofit requirements (Tier 4). The building underwent significant seismic safety improvements between 2017-2020, including both residential and commercial soft-story retrofits, with costs totaling over $250,000. Recent maintenance includes a water heater installation in December 2021 (complete), though the building faced multiple violations in late 2021 related to water damage, lead paint hazards, and various maintenance issues, including ceiling repairs and window replacements. These violations, documented under complaint #202183861, were ultimately abated by July 2023 following a director's hearing in June 2023.

The property has a history of addressing safety concerns, including a handrail installation in 2009 to comply with housing complaints. Fire safety records show only false alarm incidents and a water leak, with no civilian injuries reported. Recent 311 calls from January 2025 indicate various external maintenance needs, including a missing sewer vent cover, overgrown tree blocking the sidewalk, and a blocked parking space, though many of these issues remain open. Historical permits show past work including garage door post replacement (2000) and reroofing (1997), with some permits now expired. The building's zoning status was previously reclassified from R-1-D to C-2, though this change was listed as "None."

Risk rating

How 334-336 Claremont Blvd'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 24 buildings in this neighborhood, 20 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.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

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

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 10.1%
Moderate concern 28.0%
Severe concern 61.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
