Initial analysis

The 12-unit, 3-story apartment building at 1906 Ocean Ave, managed by McKeever Properties, was constructed in 1958 and has undergone several significant upgrades over the years. Most recently, Unit #8 is undergoing a comprehensive bathroom remodel (scheduled for completion in early 2025) which includes new fixtures, exhaust fan, lighting, and smoke detectors, with a permit cost of $25,000. In 2023, the building received important safety improvements including a completed reroofing project ($50,000) and an extensive fire alarm system upgrade ($40,476) to meet current fire code requirements, demonstrating the owner's commitment to maintaining safety standards. The building has previously completed mandatory soft-story seismic retrofitting in 2015, achieving Tier 3 compliance.

The property's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing infrastructure needs, including the replacement of the solar hot water system in 2017 and periodic reroofing work (previously completed in 1994). While the building experienced several fire safety-related violations and complaints between 2009 and 2024 regarding extinguishers and alarm systems, these issues were typically resolved promptly, with the most recent sprinkler system complaint in 2024 found to have "No Merit." The building has undergone routine housing inspections in 2001, 2003, and 2010, with all identified issues being abated in a timely manner. Recent parking-related complaints near the property (2024-2019) have primarily involved vehicles blocking driveways, which are standard urban enforcement issues not directly related to building management.

Risk rating

How 1906 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
0th percentile

Out of 26 buildings in this neighborhood, 26 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.

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 9.0%
Moderate concern 18.0%
Severe concern 73.1%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
