Initial analysis

The duplex at 1524 Guerrero Street in Noe Valley, owned by Carries N L Lee Separated P, is undergoing significant improvements as of 2023-2024. Originally built in 1925, this two-story multi-family residential building is currently in the midst of an extensive renovation project that began in early 2023 with a substantial $394,000 interior remodel of the lower two floors, including kitchen and bathroom updates, window replacements, and new HVAC systems. The project has progressed through several phases, with the most recent revision in September 2024 focusing on interior stair and bathroom layout modifications. Electrical and plumbing upgrades have been considerable, including the installation of a new 400-amp underground service system with multiple meters in August 2024, solar panel installations (two systems planned for 1524 and 1526 Guerrero) in December 2024, and various plumbing improvements including a new heat pump system and water lines completed in August 2024.

The property has experienced some maintenance issues, including a sewage backup from the side sewer vent in October 2024, though this was resolved promptly. Historical records show two complaints from 2003 and 2012 regarding unauthorized construction work and sidewalk disturbances, but these cases are no longer active. The building underwent a reroofing project in 2023 costing $18,700, and as of late 2024, appears to be nearing completion of its major renovation work, with multiple permits in various stages of completion, including some that have recently expired and others that are currently issued. The property has experienced recurring parking enforcement issues, with several complaints about blocked driveways between 2023-2024, though these are not directly related to building conditions.

Risk rating

How 1524-1526 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, 169 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.

Neighborhood location

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

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 91.1%
Moderate concern 6.9%
Severe concern 2.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
