Initial analysis

The four-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 3615 19th Street, located in Mission Dolores, was built in 1925 and is currently owned by Charles S & Dolores K Busut. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and safety improvements over the years, with the most recent major work being a furnace replacement with flue liner completed in 2019. Prior improvements include a reroofing project in 2009 (cost: $9,000) and sidewalk repairs in 2008. The building experienced a series of violations in August 2001 that raised serious safety concerns, including issues with stairs, smoke detectors, egress obstructions, water-damaged ceilings, roof access door requirements, combustible storage, and the need for a gas utility shutoff tool - all of which were resolved by October 2001. A routine apartment inspection in 2007 identified ceiling damage and fire extinguisher maintenance needs, which were also addressed.

Recent activity at the property has primarily involved external maintenance issues, particularly regarding graffiti. Between 2023 and 2025, there have been multiple reports of graffiti on the building and nearby poles, with the most recent reports being filed in early January 2025. There have also been several complaints about garbage and debris in the vicinity, with the most recent incidents occurring in November 2024, though these were resolved with no further action required. An encampment-related complaint was filed and closed in September 2024 when the individual could not be located. The building's maintenance history shows an acknowledgment of maintenance issues and a pattern of addressing violations promptly, particularly those affecting resident safety and building integrity, with no active violations currently on record.

Risk rating

How 3615 19Th 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
35th percentile

Out of 799 buildings in this neighborhood, 519 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Neighborhood location

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 43.7%
Moderate concern 17.4%
Severe concern 38.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
