Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 1931-1933 15th Street in Mission Dolores, owned by Geoffrey S. Huang and Hargett, has undergone significant safety and modernization improvements since 2020. Most notably, a comprehensive fire safety upgrade was completed between 2020 and 2023, including the installation of a new fire sprinkler system with underground support for the 1st and 2nd floors, followed by a sprinkler monitoring system with control panel, wireless communicator, smoke detectors, and pull stations. The building underwent substantial renovations in 2020 (completed), including rear deck and stair replacement, addition infill, bathroom and bedroom suite modifications, and rear yard improvements with built-in seating. Earlier improvements from 2018 included complete electrical upgrades (200-amp service change, new wiring), heating system installation (two high-efficiency furnaces), and comprehensive plumbing updates for multiple bathrooms and laundry facilities.

The property experienced several permit-related complaints in 2016-2017, regarding unpermitted work and construction activity, which were ultimately resolved. Since the completion of major renovations, there have been no reported building complaints. A few minor fire alarm activations occurred between 2020-2023, all of which were determined to be false or unintentional, with no injuries reported. The most recent building work includes a re-roofing project permitted for 2024 valued at $23,200. Recent 311 calls from 2022-2025 primarily relate to parking enforcement issues regarding blocked driveways, with several citations issued, suggesting ongoing challenges with parking management in the area. While these parking issues occur regularly, they relate to street use rather than building conditions or safety.

Risk rating

How 1931-1933 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

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

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

Property class: single-family home

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 90.7%
Moderate concern 7.4%
Severe concern 1.9%
