Initial analysis

The three-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 1714-1718 20th St in Potrero Hill, owned by Fiore3 LLC, was constructed in 1906 and has undergone several significant maintenance and compliance events over the years. Most recently, the property experienced multiple sewage backup incidents in October 2023, which were promptly addressed by PUC Sewer Operations. In 2015, the building underwent important safety improvements following a routine housing inspection in September 2014, which had identified multiple violations including fire safety concerns, staircase maintenance issues, and the need for various structural maintenance affidavits. These violations were all successfully abated by February 2015 through the installation of handrails and spindles on the rear yard stairs and other necessary safety updates.

Prior to these events, the building underwent substantial structural work in 2005 with the installation of underpinning piers at the west property line, and earlier repairs in the 1990s addressed various maintenance issues including termite damage and the replacement of wood shingles. The property has maintained regular housing inspections, with records showing compliance with identified violations. Recent maintenance requests include attention to street signage (2024) and various infrastructure issues, though these are not directly related to building safety or habitability. While the building's history shows regular upkeep and response to violations, the recurring sewage issues in 2023 represent the most significant recent maintenance challenge.

Risk rating

How 1714-1718 20Th 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

Out of 726 buildings in this neighborhood, 319 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.

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.

Permit rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building permit rate across the owner's portfolio.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 63.2%
Moderate concern 31.0%
Severe concern 5.8%
