Initial analysis

206 Fair Oaks Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in Noe Valley, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Ricardo Lucha. The property has undergone significant electrical system upgrades in 2024, with the most recent work completing in July 2024, including replacement of knob-and-tube wiring throughout multiple rooms and updates to kitchen and bathroom circuits. The building has received proper maintenance of its basic infrastructure, with recent reroofing work completed in June 2024 at a cost of $11,000, following a pattern of historical reroofing work dating back to 1993. Earlier improvements include gas fireplace installations in 2018 and 2014, and comprehensive electrical work in 2015 involving installation of new outlets and circuits in various rooms.

The property has experienced typical urban maintenance issues over the past year, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls between 2023-2024, including reports of illegal postings, graffiti on mailboxes, and various street cleaning needs. A notable incident involved the removal of medical waste (needles) from the vicinity in September 2023, though this was promptly addressed. The building's structural components have received attention when needed, including repairs to back stairs in 2012 involving dry rot remediation and code compliance improvements. The only recorded fire-related incident was an unintentional alarm system activation with no fire or civilian injuries. The property's maintenance record indicates regular upkeep and timely responses to infrastructure needs, particularly with the recent focus on electrical system modernization.

Risk rating

How 206 Fair Oaks 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
62th percentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 714 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 (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

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 71.5%
Moderate concern 14.5%
Severe concern 14.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
