Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 213-215 Vicksburg Street in Noe Valley is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1902 and currently owned by Lisa J. Thompson. The property has undergone several significant renovation projects over the years, with the most recent and substantial work scheduled for 2024 involving comprehensive updates including kitchen countertops, bathroom tiles, windows in unit 215, and rear deck repairs, along with garage improvements in both units, totaling an estimated $30,000. Prior improvements include a complete re-roofing project in 2015 ($7,480) and several significant renovations in the 1990s, including kitchen and bathroom remodels, dry rot repairs, and garage addition work. A complaint was filed in 2007 regarding improper water blasting and paint chip containment issues, though this was swiftly addressed and marked as not active.

The property's external maintenance history shows proper attention to both building maintenance and neighborhood concerns, with street space permits obtained in 2006 and 2014. Recent 311 calls related to the property have primarily concerned temporary neighborhood issues such as illegal parking (2023), a blocked sidewalk by a port-a-potty (2021), and a moving-related temporary sign request (2017), all of which were resolved without indicating any ongoing problems with the building itself. The extensive history of permits and renovations suggests active property management, with most improvements focused on modernizing and maintaining the building's basic systems and living spaces.

Risk rating

How 213-215 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
81th percentile

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 357 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.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 85.1%
Moderate concern 10.0%
Severe concern 4.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
