Initial analysis

The property at 1159-1161 De Haro Street is a two-unit, single-story multi-family residential building located in Potrero Hill, constructed in 1906 and currently owned by Jack James Campbell. The building has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, with the most notable being a 2020 window replacement project ($18,431) that installed new front-facing windows recommended by preservation standards, and a 2018 door replacement project ($13,300) that upgraded exterior doors and frames at the rear of the building. Earlier modifications from 1999 included substantial work involving dormer additions to create a third-floor master bedroom ($210,000), though this permit eventually expired, along with other related permits for a refurbished carriage house in the rear yard and patio improvements. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, with pest control addressed in 1988 and more recent street-facing window replacements in 2020 as part of ongoing maintenance.

The property has generated minimal street-level service calls in recent years, primarily consisting of routine city services such as street cleaning and sign repair. The most recent incident was a Christmas tree removal request in January 2024, which was promptly resolved. Between 2017 and 2020, there were only three service calls related to street cleaning and signage, indicating generally good building maintenance and management practices. The building's permit and service call history suggests a well-maintained property with regular updates to meet modern standards, particularly regarding exterior features such as windows and doors. The most substantial historical work was completed in 1999, but recent improvements indicate ongoing maintenance and care by the current ownership.

Risk rating

How 1159-1161 De Haro 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.
