Initial analysis

The property at 1110-1112 Potrero Avenue is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by Charles E. Figg and Schreiber. The building has experienced significant water-related issues, with recurring problems documented between 2023-2024, including multiple violations for water damage, mold/mildew, and ceiling damage, all of which were officially abated by June 2023. These issues were first reported through complaints in January 2023, describing leaks during rain events and a damaged ceiling covered by plastic sheeting. Prior to these violations, the building underwent several structural repairs in 2016, including the replacement of water-damaged beams and dryrot repairs at the back deck area, with these repairs costing approximately $25,000 in total.

The building has a history of renovation work, including a complete remodeling of both apartments in February 2005 and various permit renewals and revisions between 2005-2006, primarily related to rear door modifications on the second floor. While the most pressing issues related to water damage and mold appear to have been resolved as of mid-2023, the property's maintenance history suggests recurring challenges with water-related problems. The surrounding neighborhood has experienced various infrastructure and maintenance issues, with multiple reports of graffiti and public receptacle maintenance needs between 2023-2024, though these are exterior to the building itself.

Risk rating

How 1110-1112 Potrero Ave'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.

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.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Notices of Violation (past 7 years)

DBI issued Notices of Violation at this address over the last 7 years — a direct record of code enforcement activity.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 20.8%
Moderate concern 64.5%
Severe concern 14.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
