Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 603-607 Kansas Street in Potrero Hill is a three-story flats and duplex structure built in 1900, currently owned by Stuart S & Kelly R Schott R. The property has undergone several significant improvements over its history, with the most recent being a complete re-roofing project in 2024 costing $37,700. A major renovation in 2007 included the construction of a second means of egress stairs, partial interior remodeling, installation of a new HVAC system, electrical panel updates, and replacement of patio doors, windows, and ground floor concrete patio, totaling $150,000. There were also several maintenance issues documented in the 1990s, including a 1996 complaint about bathroom ventilation, mold, and general maintenance problems that were addressed by March 1997. More recent building-related activity includes a complaint in 2009 regarding unauthorized deck construction, though this was quickly addressed within five days.

The property has experienced recurring parking-related issues, particularly between 2019-2020, with multiple complaints about vehicles blocking driveways. Eleven parking enforcement calls were made during this period, resulting in some citations being issued, while others couldn't be validated. There was also one abandoned vehicle report from 2014 that was resolved when the vehicle was no longer present. The building's maintenance and improvement history suggests regular upkeep by the current owners, with no active building code violations or safety concerns on record as of October 2023.

Risk rating

How 603-607 Kansas 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.
