Initial analysis

The 6-unit residential building at 270 Ocean Avenue in Mission Terrace is a 4-story structure completed in 2016 by Noe Vista LLC, featuring modern amenities and safety systems. The building underwent substantial fire safety improvements during construction, including the installation of a comprehensive fire sprinkler system, a new fire alarm system with IFP100 control unit in the garage area, and notification appliances throughout all floors, with additional modifications in 2016 including outdoor horn/strobe on the roof and modifications to tamper switches.

The property has experienced several maintenance and infrastructure issues in 2024, with multiple complaints regarding street defects including sidewalk and curb issues, though these are primarily related to public infrastructure outside the building itself. Recent 311 calls have predominantly concerned parking enforcement matters, with several reports of blocked driveways and parking spaces. While there were multiple fire safety-related permits and installations during the initial construction period, the building appears to have maintained its safety systems since then, as no recent fire safety complaints or permit activity have been recorded. The construction of the building was originally permitted in 2006 with a total project cost of $1,765,149, and included features such as radiant heating systems, new plumbing systems, and comprehensive electrical installations including smoke detectors and modern appliances. The property has had minimal issues since completion, with the majority of the complaints recorded during construction in 2015 being appropriately addressed.

Risk rating

How 270 Ocean 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

Out of 149 buildings in this neighborhood, 113 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 53.0%
Moderate concern 23.0%
Severe concern 24.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
