Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 683-685 Dolores Street, owned by Peter Sr. Bradley and built in 1908, has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, with the most recent major renovations occurring between 2015-2015. During this period, approximately $10,000 was invested in electrical upgrades, including the installation of can lights, outlets, and smoke detectors, as well as partial middle wall removal on the upper unit with related framing and foundation work. Earlier improvements included garage modifications in 2013, bathroom legalization in 2009, and multiple electrical upgrades including the installation of various lights and outlets in different areas. The building's maintenance history shows attention to safety and infrastructure, with repairs to rear stairs in 2002 and a 2007 upgrade to gas lines and water heaters.

The property has experienced several false alarm incidents related to smoke detectors and alarm systems, all of which resulted in no injuries or actual fires. A single building complaint was filed in 2009 regarding unpermitted construction work in the garage, which was subsequently resolved. More recent issues have primarily involved neighborhood maintenance concerns outside the building, including several reports of sidewalk parking violations and street cleaning matters between 2022-2024, though these are not directly related to the building's condition or management. The building appears to have received regular maintenance over the years, with significant investments in safety systems, electrical infrastructure, and general upkeep, though prospective tenants should note the age of the building and its various systems as evidenced by the historical permit records.

Risk rating

How 683-685 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 799 buildings in this neighborhood, 200 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.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 66.0%
Moderate concern 18.3%
Severe concern 15.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
