Initial analysis

The three-story, two-unit building at 1490-1492 Guerrero St in Noe Valley, owned by the Lisa Lee Family Trust, was constructed in 1907 and has undergone significant renovations in recent years. The most substantial improvements occurred in 2015-2016, including a comprehensive interior remodel of both units comprising new kitchens, bathrooms, electrical systems, and hydronic radiant heating, along with the installation of a solar PV system in 2019. The renovation work included structural modifications such as relocating garage columns, adjusting laundry and utility areas, and reconfiguring stairs, with a total investment exceeding $460,000. Historical maintenance records show attention to various building systems, including repairs for dry rot in 1997 and rear stair repairs in 2000.

The property has experienced some maintenance and compliance issues, particularly during the 2016 renovation period when there were complaints regarding a portable toilet blocking the sidewalk and some construction equipment occupying parking spaces, though these matters were eventually resolved. The building's recent history shows no active building code violations or planning code complaints. The surrounding area has experienced typical urban maintenance issues as evidenced by 311 calls, including reports of encampments, general cleaning needs, and parking violations, though these are primarily street-related matters not directly connected to the building's condition or management. The most recent building improvements have focused on modernizing both units with contemporary amenities while maintaining the building's historical character, as evidenced by the replacement of front windows with wood sash units and the preservation of the front elevation.

Risk rating

How 1490-1492 Guerrero 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

Out of 1879 buildings in this neighborhood, 789 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.

Neighborhood (ZIP code)

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

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.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 60.3%
Moderate concern 14.8%
Severe concern 24.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
