Initial analysis

The three-story, six-unit multi-family residential building at 2035 15th Street, owned by Bertrand & Dorothy Baylin F, was constructed in 1927 and has undergone several significant safety and infrastructure improvements over the years. Most notably, the building is currently undergoing a comprehensive fire safety system upgrade, as evidenced by the December 2024 permits for a complete fire system replacement including new control panels, smoke detectors, horn/strobe devices, and low-frequency sounders throughout the building. The property has completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit of the garage floor in 2016, enhancing the building's seismic resilience, and has previously addressed various safety concerns through timely maintenance, including a gas line replacement for unit #6 in 2007 and electrical service upgrades in 2004.

The building has experienced several compliance and safety issues over its history, though all have been resolved. Multiple violations were documented in late 2000 through early 2001 related to fire safety and building maintenance, including issues with fire extinguishers, window repairs, and gas utility requirements, all of which were abated by March 2001. A routine inspection in 2022 identified several common area issues, including concerns with the fire escape ladder and the need for compliance affidavits, which were resolved shortly thereafter. The property has maintained active responses to fire safety requirements, including a 2009 fire alarm systems correction, and is classified as Tier 3 in the city's soft-story program, indicating that work has been completed and a Certificate of Final Completion was issued.

Risk rating

How 2035 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
