Initial analysis

The 8-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1864 15th Street, owned by Artal Living Trust, was constructed in 1976 in the Mission Dolores neighborhood. The building's maintenance history shows two roofing projects, with one completed in 1988 and another initiated in 1996 but recorded as expired. The property has undergone several routine inspections and faced multiple safety-related violations, particularly in 2003 and 2022, including issues with fire safety systems, smoke enclosure doors, and gas utility shutoff requirements; however, all these violations were subsequently abated. More recent concerns include a 2021 complaint about construction noise and a 2020 routine safety inspection, both of which are no longer active.

Recent records from 2024 show various issues in the vicinity of the building, including multiple reports of garbage and debris on sidewalks, with the most recent complaint about graffiti on the residential building property in November 2024. There are also several 311 calls related to building maintenance issues, including a damaged sewer vent cover and reports of human waste on nearby sidewalks. Historical planning records indicate the property was involved in parking-related matters and a land acquisition for a mini-park program, and it was originally developed as an 8-apartment building over garage space with required permits. The building has not recorded any tenant buyouts to date, suggesting stability in tenancy under current ownership.

Risk rating

How 1864 15Th 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 799 buildings in this neighborhood, 575 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 (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 38.4%
Moderate concern 31.8%
Severe concern 29.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
