Initial analysis

The property at 55-57 Beaver Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Duboce Triangle neighborhood. Built in 1900 and currently owned by Barbara Lee Hillend 2019 Tr, this flat/duplex structure has a notable history of maintenance and safety concerns. In 1997, the building experienced a significant safety issue when the back porch enclosure resulted in the removal of back steps, creating an egress problem for the upstairs tenant that persisted for two years. This led to multiple permit applications in 1998 to address unsafe conditions, including the removal and replacement of the problematic deck and stairs. The building received a new roof in August 1997, and there were sidewalk repairs attempted in 2000.

More recently, the property has experienced various maintenance and environmental issues, including a sewage vent problem reported in 2021 and multiple instances of blocked driveways requiring parking enforcement attention between 2020 and 2022. The most recent building-related incidents include an offensive graffiti report in March 2019 and a general complaint that prompted investigation by the Department of Public Health in May 2020. The surrounding area has seen various street-related issues in recent years, including illegal parking (most recently in October 2024) and waste removal cases, though these are more reflective of neighborhood conditions than building-specific problems. While the property has experienced several maintenance and safety issues over the years, many of the more serious concerns appear to have been addressed, though some local infrastructure and parking challenges persist.

Risk rating

How 55-57 Beaver 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
67th percentile

Out of 287 buildings in this neighborhood, 95 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 age

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

Neighborhood location

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

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 74.2%
Moderate concern 13.7%
Severe concern 12.1%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
