Initial analysis

The property at 1200 19th Street in Potrero Hill is a four-story, two-unit multi-family residential building that was constructed in 2011, following the demolition of a single-family dwelling. The building was developed by Shami Family 1993 Trust and underwent significant construction work from 2003 to 2011, including the installation of modern amenities such as a fire sprinkler system, solar panels, an elevator, and comprehensive plumbing and electrical systems. Notably, the building's fire safety features were prioritized during construction, with the installation of both sprinkler and fire alarm systems.

Earlier concerns about structural integrity were addressed prior to construction, when in 2006-2009, there were violations regarding a potentially unstable retaining wall on the west side of the property, which were resolved. The property has since maintained regulatory compliance, with the most recent major improvement being the installation of solar panels on Unit B in 2011. Recent municipal service calls from 2021-2024 have primarily concerned external issues such as graffiti, street lighting, and sidewalk maintenance, rather than structural or safety concerns regarding the building itself. A single building complaint from 2011 regarding work beyond the scope of permit (extra kitchen) was filed and resolved within weeks. The building has experienced minimal fire-related incidents, with records showing only one false alarm and no related civilian injuries.

Risk rating

How 1200 19Th 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
99th percentile

Out of 726 buildings in this neighborhood, 7 are predicted to be safer.
