Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1233 Girard Street in Visitacion Valley is a 2-story flats and duplex structure built in 1928, currently owned by Nicholas B. Greene. The property's maintenance and infrastructure upgrades over the years show regular attention to essential systems, including three water heater installations (1996, 2017, and most recently in 2022), an underground conversion to 200 amp service in 2004, and electrical system improvements in 2003 including new 150-amp service with two meters. A 2003 electrical rewiring project for the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom appears to have been abandoned, as indicated by its expired permit status.

The surrounding area has experienced notable environmental challenges in recent years, particularly during 2023-2024, with numerous 311 calls related to street and sidewalk cleaning. Between October 2023 and October 2024, there were at least eight reported incidents involving garbage and debris, including hazardous materials, glass, and furniture (such as a mattress), all of which were resolved by various city agencies including Recology and the Department of Public Works. While these external issues don't directly impact the building's internal conditions, they provide context about the immediate neighborhood environment. The property has maintained compliance with required infrastructure upgrades, with only the one identified exception of the incomplete electrical rewiring work from 2003.

Risk rating

How 1233 Girard 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
46th percentile

Out of 214 buildings in this neighborhood, 116 are predicted to be safer.
