AI summary

The 563 Capp Street property is a three-story, multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood, constructed in 1913 and currently owned by Carta-capp LLC. The building contains 6 units and has undergone several significant modifications and improvements over the years. Most notably, a seismic soft-story retrofit was completed in 2017 at a cost of $125,000, bringing the building into compliance with San Francisco's seismic safety requirements. In 2020, there was an attempt to add three ground/garage-level units with associated electrical and structural work, though this permit was ultimately cancelled. A sewer repair was successfully completed in 2014.

The building experienced several violations in late 2003 related to fire safety and structural issues, specifically concerning fire proofing and stairs, which were all abated by April 2004. There was also a routine housing inspection in 2010 that did not result in any ongoing violations. More recent activity around the building has primarily consisted of external maintenance issues, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls between 2019 and 2024 regarding sidewalk cleaning, waste removal, and parking enforcement. Notable infrastructure improvements include the completed soft-story retrofit, which is classified as Tier 3 with a Certificate of Final Completion (CFC) issued. The property has an established history of addressing safety and structural concerns, though the cancelled unit addition from 2020 suggests some challenges in expanding the building's capacity.

Risk rating

How 563 Capp 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
68th percentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 762 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 45.9%
Moderate concern 18.9%
Severe concern 35.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
