Initial analysis

The property at 184-186 Noe Street is a 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building located in Duboce Triangle, owned by Chazen Wolfe LLC and constructed in 1902. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, most notably a $25,000 voluntary seismic strengthening project in 2014 that included the installation of steel moment-resisting frames, epoxied anchor bolts, and a shear wall at the garage floor level. Recent maintenance activities include plumbing updates in 2017 to comply with gas shutoff tool requirements and water heater installation, along with sewer infrastructure improvements in 2009 involving the replacement of the house trap.

The building has experienced recurring safety compliance issues, particularly in 2017 when multiple violations were documented regarding utility shutoff requirements, fire safety systems, and self-closing doors. A notable incident occurred in August 2017 involving hoarding conditions that raised concerns about fire and health hazards, though this complaint was later abated. Earlier violations from 2000 included various fire safety issues that were resolved within two months. The property has a documented history of plumbing challenges, including a sewage backup incident in 1998, and fire safety concerns, as evidenced by a multiple fire code violations complaint in 2020. Recent months have seen no building-specific violations, but there have been numerous street-related service calls in 2024, primarily regarding garbage and debris cleanup, particularly in July 2024 when multiple reports were filed.

Risk rating

How 184-186 Noe 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
40th percentile

Out of 287 buildings in this neighborhood, 172 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 age

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 42.4%
Moderate concern 23.1%
Severe concern 34.5%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
