Initial analysis

The two-story multi-family residential building at 155 Duncan Street in Noe Valley, owned by Carol Y. Wong, consists of three units and was constructed in 1900. The property has undergone two documented roofing projects, with the most recent completed in 2019 at a cost of $9,000, while an earlier permit from 1997 had expired without confirmation of completion. The building has experienced recurring parking enforcement issues, particularly with vehicles blocking driveways, as evidenced by ten separate incidents between 2020 and 2024, resulting in several citations being issued. These parking violations have been a persistent problem, with the most recent cases occurring in 2024 involving vehicles blocking the driveway and parking on the sidewalk. Between 2020 and 2021, two other notable incidents were recorded: one involving human or animal waste requiring street cleaning services in August 2021, and a sewer issue reported to the Public Utilities Commission in January 2021, though this case was ultimately deemed invalid due to timeline discrepancies. The maintenance history shows attention to basic infrastructure with the roofing work, while the recurring parking enforcement issues suggest ongoing challenges related to parking management in the vicinity of the property.

Risk rating

How 155 Duncan 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, 1390 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 location

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

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.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 61.3%
Moderate concern 25.6%
Severe concern 13.1%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
