Initial analysis

The 1200-1202 Hampshire Street property is a 3-story, 16-unit multi-family residential building located in the Inner Mission, built in 1927 and currently owned by Murphy San Francisco LP. The building has undergone several significant improvements, most notably completing mandatory soft-story retrofits in 2019 at a cost of $200,000, demonstrating compliance with San Francisco's seismic safety requirements. Recent electrical updates include a panel replacement completed in September 2024, and the building has a pattern of addressing safety concerns, as seen in recent fire safety violations that were promptly corrected, including alarm system maintenance issues in 2023.

The property's maintenance history shows attention to various building systems, though it has experienced recurring fire safety inspections and violations, particularly regarding alarm systems and sleeping area requirements, with the most recent open violation from December 2023. There have been multiple historical building complaints regarding maintenance issues, including a pattern of water-related problems and interior repairs needed between 1997-2003, though many older violations were successfully abated. The building's recent history shows more focus on compliance with safety standards, though there is currently an active planning issue regarding the illegal change of use of the former dry cleaners space. Recent 311 calls (as of early 2025) primarily relate to graffiti and public space concerns outside the building. The property has maintained a generally stable tenancy, with most recent issues being promptly addressed through proper channels, particularly in terms of fire safety compliance.

Risk rating

How 1200-1202 Hampshire 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
2th percentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 2332 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building size

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

Neighborhood location

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 13.2%
Moderate concern 76.3%
Severe concern 10.5%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
