Initial analysis

The 13-unit apartment building at 1351-1373 Noe Street in Noe Valley, owned by Fong Bypass Tr, was constructed in 1907 and underwent significant safety improvements in recent years. Most notably, the building completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2015, bringing the structure into compliance with updated seismic safety requirements. The property has a documented history of addressing fire safety concerns, including a fire incident in 2006 that required substantial repairs to one apartment, including wall and ceiling cleaning, new flooring, kitchen cabinetry, and bathroom fixtures, totaling approximately $18,000 in repairs. More recently, in September 2022, the building received attention for multiple fire safety issues, including concerns with hazardous materials, exit maintenance, fire escape, and sprinkler/standpipe systems, all of which were documented as corrected by December 2022.

The building has experienced several maintenance and compliance issues over the years, including a significant set of violations in March 2000 related to stair repairs, smoke detector functionality, and gas utility shutoff requirements, which were ultimately resolved by October 2000. A 2000 building permit indicates work was done to address back stairs repairs, while another permit from 2006 shows work on electrical devices and fixtures following the fire incident. Most recently, in March 2023, there was a general maintenance complaint that led to multiple violations, including issues with weatherproofing on siding, damaged ceilings, interior painting needs, and concerns about lead-based paint, though these were abated by June 2023. The building's permit history also includes various infrastructure improvements over the years, such as reroofing work in 1998 and rebuild of second exit stairs in 2000.

Risk rating

How 1351-1373 Noe 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.
