Initial analysis

The three-story, 6-unit multi-family residential building at 24-28 Langton Street, owned by the Patricia Kiely Trust, was constructed in 1911 and has undergone several significant modifications over its history. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2016 (with a cost of $6,001) to improve seismic safety, meeting requirements under the San Francisco Building Code. The building's safety history includes a fire incident in 1984 that required repairs, with records from both April and August of that year showing clear-outs and fire damage repair work.

In September 2007, the building underwent a routine safety inspection that resulted in multiple violations related to fire safety and gas utility requirements, including the need to recharge fire extinguishers and provide gas shutoff tools. These violations were all resolved by September 27, 2007. The most recent permitting work was for a shear wall relocation in 2016, which was successfully completed. The property is currently listed as having completed its soft-story retrofit with a Certificate of Final Completion issued. Recent 311 calls from 2024 primarily relate to street conditions around the building, including reports of human waste, debris, and curb defects, as well as encampments in the vicinity, though these external issues don't directly indicate building safety concerns. An open case from September 2024 related to structural maintenance (fencing iron work) is currently pending resolution.

Risk rating

How 24-28 Langton 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
