Initial analysis

Most recently, in 2024, the building underwent a fire alarm upgrade to comply with San Francisco Fire Department requirements, though violations remain open regarding the alarm system maintenance and sleeping area requirements. The building has a history of persistent plumbing problems, particularly water leaks affecting both individual units and common areas, with multiple tenant complaints documented between 2022-2023 about leaks, mold, and ceiling damage. A significant leak incident was reported in March 2023, and there have been issues with unauthorized plumbing work in late 2020.

The property has experienced several building code violations, particularly in 2016, when multiple safety and maintenance issues were identified, including problems with smoke enclosure doors, door locks, egress obstructions, handrails, window repairs, and fire extinguisher maintenance—all of which were abated by September 2016. More recent building improvements include plumbing system upgrades between 2019-2020, though a complaint regarding an unpermitted dwelling unit was filed in 2023 and is currently under review. The building has undergone various maintenance work over the years, including a boiler replacement in 2019, though some permits from 2014 for handrail and door lock repairs expired without completion. Fire safety systems have been a recurring focus, with multiple fire alarm-related complaints and violations documented between 2005-2024. The property has also seen regular issues with exterior maintenance as evidenced by 311 calls regarding graffiti, garbage, and debris on the property grounds throughout 2024.

Risk rating

How 1750 Mission 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 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 2380 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

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.

Notices of Violation (past 7 years)

DBI issued Notices of Violation at this address over the last 7 years — a direct record of code enforcement activity.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 6.1%
Moderate concern 64.3%
Severe concern 29.5%
