Initial analysis

The two-story multi-family residential building at 52 Prosper Street, located in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood, is a century-old structure (built in 1900) classified as a flats and duplex property, currently owned by Jimmy C. Buckley. The building's maintenance record shows two significant permitted improvements: a street space permit issued in December 2016 at no cost, and a reroofing project completed in 2010 at a cost of $6,300.

Recent incident records from 2023-2024 indicate a persistent issue with illegal parking in the vicinity, particularly concerning blocked driveways, with six reported cases between December 2023 and May 2024 involving various vehicles, including Teslas, Audis, Fiats, Jeeps, and Corollas. Two recent encampment reports (February and March 2024) were submitted but these cases were not located by responding officers. Additional incidents include a parking on sidewalk violation in December 2022 and an illegal parking incident in November 2023, both of which were addressed by parking enforcement officers. The only non-parking related complaint in this period was a general cleaning request regarding loose garbage in February 2023, which was resolved. The building's historical permit record shows minimal maintenance activity, with no significant improvements or violations noted in recent years beyond the documented reroofing and street space permit.

Risk rating

How 52 Prosper 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 1278 buildings in this neighborhood, 435 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.

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

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 85.9%
Moderate concern 9.4%
Severe concern 4.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
