Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 695-697 Dolores Street, located in Mission Dolores, is a two-story flats/duplex structure built in 1909 and currently owned by Lorna D Johnston Tr 2013. The property's maintenance and upgrades over the past two decades show regular attention to infrastructure, with significant improvements including a garage door replacement in 2017, complete plumbing work involving house trap and sewer line replacement in 2013, and electrical upgrades featuring the installation of an elevator system in 2014 and conversion from overhead to underground electrical service in 2004, both of which were successfully completed.

The most pressing recent issues affecting the property area (dating from late 2024) involve multiple instances of graffiti, with several cases currently open or recently resolved, and concerns about damaged trees, including one case of vandalism that remains open. There have been several 311 calls in recent months regarding street maintenance issues, including graffiti on various public surfaces (with some cases unresolved as of December 2024), garbage and debris concerns that were resolved, and a historical street light posting complaint. The building itself has experienced two false fire alarms, though neither incident resulted in civilian injuries. The property's maintenance record shows routine upkeep of essential systems, though the recent concentration of exterior issues primarily involves public infrastructure rather than the building itself.

Risk rating

How 695-697 Dolores 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.
