Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 887-891 Capp Street in the Inner Mission, owned by Enrique A Rodriguez, was constructed in 1900 and contains three units. The property underwent significant renovations in 2022-2023, including major interior work completed in September 2022 costing $120,000, which involved removing wall plaster, updating wiring and plumbing, installing new kitchen cabinets and fixtures, and repairing finishes. The building also received necessary safety upgrades, with the replacement of rear stairs and landings completed in June 2022 for $25,000. These improvements were accompanied by comprehensive updates to the building's systems, including electrical rewiring of bedrooms, kitchen, and bathroom areas, a new gas furnace installation, and kitchen and bathroom plumbing modifications, all completed in October 2022. The building's maintenance history shows attention to various systems, with a water heater flue installation completed in 2011 and earlier work on stairway construction in 1991.

The property had a notable set of building violations documented in January 2004, with multiple issues related to safety and maintenance, including problems with stairs, electrical systems, handrails, and lead paint hazards. These violations were all abated by March 2005. Since then, there have been regular maintenance updates, including a 2001 reroofing project, though the permit status for this work is listed as expired. Recent dwellings on the property have mostly involved exterior and infrastructure upgrades, with the most recent building permit work focusing on interior improvements and safety compliance. The surrounding area has seen various municipal service calls in recent years, primarily related to parking meter maintenance and noise complaints, suggesting active urban conditions typical of the Inner Mission neighborhood, though these are not direct reflections on the building's condition or management.

Risk rating

How 887-891 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

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.

Neighborhood location

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

DBI complaint rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building complaint rate across the owner's portfolio.

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 61.4%
Moderate concern 23.8%
Severe concern 14.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
