Initial analysis

The two-story, multi-family residential building at 767 Carolina Street in Potrero Hill, owned by Freeman Dale, is a century-old structure built in 1910 containing two units. The property's maintenance history shows several significant maintenance events, including a street space permit issued in 2005, an expired reroofing permit from 2002 valued at $12,000, and a completed dormer construction project with staircase relocation from 1986. Of particular note is a short-term rental complaint filed in October 2016 regarding illegal rentals in the lower one-bedroom space, though subsequent investigation found no violation, with the property only holding an approved host certificate for Unit B.

The building has experienced several infrastructure and maintenance-related incidents over the years, including a sewer vent issue in July 2013 that was resolved by field work, and a flickering street light outside the property in January 2014 that was subsequently fixed by PG&E. Fire safety records indicate two incidents: a malfunctioning alarm system activation and a contained cooking fire, neither of which resulted in civilian injuries. The property has a notable pattern of abandoned vehicle complaints in the immediate area, with multiple reports between 2008 and 2023, though these were primarily street-related issues outside the building itself. A park patrol complaint in February 2018 was incorrectly routed and ultimately referred to parking authorities.

Risk rating

How 767 Carolina 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, 407 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.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Construction spend, owner's portfolio

Estimated permit value across all of this owner's buildings.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 71.2%
Moderate concern 20.7%
Severe concern 8.1%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
