Initial analysis

The 3-unit, 3-story residential building at 569-571 Natoma Street in San Francisco's South of Market neighborhood, owned by Louie 1995 Family Trust The, has a mixed maintenance and compliance history since its construction in 1907. The property underwent reroofing in 1991, and had some street space permits issued in 2008. In late 2021, the building experienced multiple significant maintenance issues, including problems with interior surfaces (floor coverings, walls, ceilings), plumbing (sink repair), heating, rodent infestation, general dilapidation, and potential lead paint hazards. These violations were documented through a single complaint (202183751) filed on October 29, 2021, and were officially abated by January 3, 2022. Additional historical maintenance issues include a 2004 complaint regarding the need for a gas utility shutoff tool, and a complaint about roof deck safety.

The building has been the subject of several recent construction-related complaints, with reports in March and June 2022 regarding potentially unauthorized construction work at the rear of the property. Past complaints have included concerns about broken window glazing (2010), health and safety inspections (2008, 2011), and a 2018 noise complaint regarding construction activities. The surrounding area has experienced ongoing street cleanliness issues, with multiple reports of garbage, debris, and waste on or near the property between February and November 2024, though these are external to the building itself. A fire incident report indicates a welfare check with no civilian injuries. The property's maintenance history shows periods of both active management (with violations being abated) and recurring issues that suggest ongoing maintenance challenges.

Risk rating

How 569-571 Natoma 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.
