Initial analysis

The 6-unit, 3-story apartment building at 455-459 Sanchez St, owned by Haramis Trust and built in 1908, has undergone significant modernizations and safety improvements in recent years. Most notably, the property completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2018 (as a Tier 4 building), demonstrating compliance with seismic safety requirements. Recent renovations include comprehensive bathroom and kitchen remodels, electrical and plumbing upgrades, and window replacements, with the most recent work completed in 2024 totaling approximately $25,000. This work followed earlier substantial improvements in 2022 and 2020, which included new insulation, drywall, HVAC systems, and gas line replacements.

The building has a history of addressing structural and safety concerns, with earlier improvements including stair repairs in 2002, steel reinforcement of wooden beams in 2004, and plumbing repairs to the clay sewer in 2013. The property has previously experienced maintenance issues that have since been resolved, including stair safety concerns and gas utility requirements in 2002-2003, and exterior wood ladder violations in 2011. Recent infrastructure upgrades, completed in 2023, include a new heating system (forced air furnace), electrical sub-panel installation, and rewiring of receptacles and lights, indicating ongoing commitment to maintaining building systems.

Risk rating

How 455-459 Sanchez 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.
