Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 370-372 28th Street in Noe Valley, owned by Mark H Pearce, dates back to 1900 and consists of two stories. The property's maintenance history includes several significant improvements, with the most notable being a complete reroofing project completed in 2009 at a cost of $7,000, and a substantial room and attic expansion completed in 1998 to create a new bedroom. The building has experienced two documented housing-related incidents in 2012, including one case of mold in the bedrooms and another involving hazardous electrical wiring in the bathroom,though both issues were addressed and marked as abated within a month of being reported.

The property has generated multiple 311 calls since 2019, primarily related to parking issues, with several reports of illegal parking and abandoned vehicles in the vicinity. There have also been requests for street maintenance, including a general cleaning request in January 2021 and a tree pruning request in May 2019. A street light shield request was submitted in April 2021, though this was deemed invalid as it fell outside the jurisdiction of the responding department. While the building's documented permit and complaint history shows some maintenance and safety issues in 2012, it's worth noting that both were resolved promptly, and there have been no reported housing or safety violations in the past decade. The majority of recent complaints have been related to parking and street upkeep, rather than building-specific issues.

Risk rating

How 370-372 28Th 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.

Building age

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

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 85.8%
Moderate concern 10.3%
Severe concern 3.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
