Initial analysis

The property at 183-185 Lexington Street in the Inner Mission is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1906 and currently owned by Danny Exon. The building has undergone several significant repairs and improvements over the past two decades, including fire safety upgrades in 2004 involving sheetrock installation for fire separation between garage and living areas ($7,500), and multiple structural repairs in 2001-2002 addressing dry rot issues in porch decking ($6,000) and rear staircase repairs ($8,000). The building experienced a period of safety and maintenance concerns in late 2001 and 2003, with multiple violations related to fire safety, building security, and general maintenance, including issues with stairs, ceilings, and the need for proper fire extinguishers and gas meter safety equipment. These violations were all officially abated by January 2002.

More recent history shows ongoing maintenance and cleanliness issues in the surrounding area, with multiple 311 calls between 2022 and 2025 regarding street cleaning, sidewalk conditions, and waste management, including several reports of human/animal waste and loose garbage that were typically resolved by city services. The most recent building-related concern is an open noise complaint from January 2025. Routine housing inspections were conducted in 2001 (noting ceiling and mailbox issues), 2003, and 2008, with all cases being marked as not active after necessary corrections were made. In terms of structural improvements, the building currently has records of sidewalk and street space permits issued in 2007, though these technically show zero cost.

Risk rating

How 183-185 Lexington 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 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 928 are predicted to be safer.
