Initial analysis

941 Dolores Street is a three-story, 5-unit multi-family residential building located in Noe Valley, constructed in 1913 and currently owned by the Marion Friedeberg Revocable Trust. The building has undergone several significant upgrades and maintenance work in recent years, including a complete soft-story retrofit in 2017 (Tier 3) valued at $60,000, installation of new water heaters and plumbing improvements in 2019, a street space permit in 2009, and substantial electrical upgrades in 2004 including a new underground service with 200-amp panel installation. The building's maintenance history shows attention to fundamental infrastructure, with previous work including a reroofing project in 1997 and compliance issues from 1988 being addressed.

The property has experienced several code compliance challenges over the years, though all have been resolved. In 2014, there were multiple violations related to the mandatory Soft Story Retrofit Program that were ultimately addressed through the completed retrofit work. Between 2002-2010, there were issues regarding fire safety (fire extinguisher maintenance) and security (self-closing doors), which were resolved. A notable incident occurred in 2010 concerning the unauthorized conversion of a detached garage into habitable space, which was investigated and closed in 2012. Recent years have seen typical urban challenges in the surrounding area, as evidenced by 311 calls regarding street maintenance, parking issues, and general cleaning matters, though these are external to the building itself. The property's documented history as of October 2023 indicates compliance with local building codes and completed safety improvements, particularly the significant investment in seismic retrofit work.

Risk rating

How 941 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
18th percentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 1541 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 31.1%
Moderate concern 18.0%
Severe concern 50.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
