Initial analysis

The property at 903-905 14th Street in Duboce Triangle is a two-story, two-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Julian Sandmann. The building has undergone several significant renovations throughout its history, with major work occurring in 1989 when bathrooms and kitchens were remodeled, followed by additional permitted work in 1990. In 1994, multiple permits were successfully completed, indicating the completion of these renovation projects.

Recent issues near the property have included various public space maintenance concerns, with the most recent service calls focusing on exterior maintenance and street cleaning. In 2024, there were reports of a damaged tree and graffiti, while 2023 saw issues with encampments, loose garbage, and graffiti on or near the building. The property has experienced some challenges typical of urban environments, including multiple instances of graffiti (both on and near the building), and there have been two documented cases of encampment cleanup required in nearby areas (July 2023 and July 2020). Infrastructure maintenance has been addressed through various 311 calls, including tree maintenance, general cleaning, and sign repair, with most cases being successfully resolved by the responsible agencies. It's worth noting that during the COVID pandemic, there was a temporary suspension of certain enforcement actions related to graffiti removal, which may have contributed to a backlog of service requests during that period.

Risk rating

How 903-905 14Th 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
74th percentile

Out of 287 buildings in this neighborhood, 75 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.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 71.0%
Moderate concern 13.1%
Severe concern 15.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
