Initial analysis

The property at 4025-4027 19th Street is a one-story, two-unit multi-family residential building located in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood, constructed in 1904 and currently owned by Stephen Kirkham. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most recent major work being a $19,000 reroofing project completed in 2022. In 2005, substantial renovations were undertaken including kitchen and bathroom remodels, foundation work, and the installation of skylights, with a total estimated cost of over $50,000 for these improvements. The electrical system was upgraded in 2005 with the installation of a new 200-amp service with two meters for the duplex building.

Recent maintenance and safety concerns have primarily involved exterior issues, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding garbage and debris (which were resolved with no work needed), and an open graffiti complaint from June 2024. The building's exterior and surrounding area have experienced periodic cleanliness challenges, as evidenced by several 311 calls between 2019 and 2024 regarding loose garbage, toter management, and a hazardous materials report. A significant discretionary review process occurred in 2004 regarding a proposed two-story vertical addition and rear horizontal extension to the building, though there is no record of this being implemented. The property has maintained compliance with safety and building codes, with no recorded violations or serious incidents, and all permitted work has been properly documented through the city's permit system.

Risk rating

How 4025-4027 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
67th percentile

Out of 1278 buildings in this neighborhood, 422 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.

Construction spend, owner's portfolio

Estimated permit value across all of this owner's buildings.

Building age

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

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 77.6%
Moderate concern 13.3%
Severe concern 9.1%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
