Initial analysis

The three-story, six-unit apartment building at 69-73 Lapidge Street in Mission Dolores, owned by Raul A Mendieta Revoc Trust, was constructed in 1907 and has undergone several significant modifications and improvements over the years. Most notably, the building completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit work in 2019 under San Francisco Building Code Chapter 4D requirements, following an initial withdrawal of a $283,500 permit in 2017. In 2019, the property undertook additional compliance work valued at $150,000, and earlier renovations in 2002 included the replacement of exterior wood stairs for $12,000. The building has experienced multiple fire safety-related incidents and violations, including malfunctioning alarm systems in 2006 and 2010, and a fire safety violation in 2006 related to extinguishers and safeguards/devices maintenance, though these issues were eventually resolved.

The property has maintained relatively active attention to exterior maintenance and compliance requirements, with various inspections and improvements documented over the years. Historical violations from 2001 included issues with fire proofing materials, water damaged ceilings, combustible storage, and security devices, though all these were abated by 2004. More recent concerns have been primarily related to external conditions and amenities, including sidewalk issues (tree root lifting), and various 311 calls for garbage and debris on the surrounding sidewalks. The most recent building activities include resolutions of street cleaning and sidewalk maintenance issues reported between 2023 and 2024. The building's soft-story retrofit completion demonstrates compliance with current seismic safety requirements, and the property has maintained active status with the San Francisco Fire Department regarding fire safety inspections and maintenance requirements.

Risk rating

How 69-73 Lapidge 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.
