Initial analysis

The 4-unit multi-family residential building at 353-359 San Jose Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Mission was constructed in 2017, following the demolition of a single-family dwelling. The 3-story apartment building, owned by Adil Nasim & Frahnaz Shaikh, underwent significant construction work including the installation of a comprehensive fire protection system with sprinklers, a smoke detection system, and a new fire alarm control unit. Building permits from 2015-2016 show the installation of modern amenities throughout the building, including high-efficiency radiant heating systems, new plumbing infrastructure, and complete electrical systems with individual meters for each unit.

The building's maintenance history is generally positive, with all major systems installed and permitted according to code. However, there were two carbon monoxide-related incidents recorded by the fire department (one CO detector activation and one actual CO incident), though fortunately, neither resulted in civilian injuries. The property experienced multiple street cleaning issues in recent years, with several 311 calls regarding garbage and debris between 2021 and 2024. Historical records from 2007 indicate a previous building (prior to the new construction) had various interior surface violations which were all abated by October 2007, including issues with floor coverings, ceilings, walls, and heating systems, though these do not pertain to the current building.

Risk rating

How 353-359 San Jose 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 2380 buildings in this neighborhood, 952 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.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

The ZIP code captures local housing market and enforcement patterns that affect all buildings in the area.

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 63.7%
Moderate concern 9.2%
Severe concern 27.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
