Initial analysis

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 41-43 Vicksburg Street in Noe Valley, owned by Alan K & Laura G Grebene Tr, was constructed in 1910 and consists of two stories. The property has undergone several significant renovations over the past decade, with the most recent work being a furnace switch-out in January 2025 and multiple sewer-related repairs between 2020-2022, including a sewer housetrap installation. In 2015, substantial improvements were made to the garage, including reconstruction work costing $60,000 and associated electrical wiring completed in 2016. The building's outdoor spaces have received attention as well, with deck and railing replacement projects in 2012 and 2016, though there has been one notable recent concern regarding a collapsed sidewalk (reported March 2023) that remains unresolved. The property has experienced recurring sewer issues, with six documented incidents in 2020 alone, suggesting potential ongoing infrastructure challenges.

The building's maintenance record shows regular upkeep has been performed, including a roofing project in 2011 and a deck footing replacement in 2016. More recent developments include multiple street space permits in 2015 and some plumbing infrastructure improvements. The property has had minimal recent complaints beyond the sewer infrastructure matters, with the most recent non-infrastructure related cases being a film commission request in December 2024 and a damaged tree report in December 2023 (now resolved). The owners have demonstrated commitment to maintaining and upgrading the property through various improvements, though the pattern of sewer-related incidents suggests this may be an area requiring ongoing attention.

Risk rating

How 41-43 Vicksburg 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 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 752 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.

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.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 70.8%
Moderate concern 16.8%
Severe concern 12.5%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
