Initial analysis

1587 Sanchez Street is a two-story duplex multi-family residential building located in Noe Valley, built in 1920 and currently owned by Carol Werner Lemaitre & Cunni. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past few decades, with the most recent being a completed reroofing project in December 2023 costing $15,000. Other notable upgrades include the installation of a ductless mini-split system in February 2021, a solar PV system with 30 roof-mounted modules installed in 2007, and previous renovations such as a kitchen remodel in 1990 and an attempted window replacement project in 2002 (permit expired) involving 14 windows including 6 front-facing windows.

The building's recent history shows a cluster of maintenance and service-related issues primarily affecting the surrounding public space, with multiple reports of overflowing city garbage cans in the vicinity throughout 2022, totaling six reports in that year alone, all of which were resolved through pickup services. There have been two parking-related incidents recorded near the property in 2024, including a double parking complaint involving a Tesla and a street cleaning issue. The property appears to be regularly maintained with significant investments in structural and energy efficiency improvements, though the concentration of garbage-related complaints in 2022 suggests there may have been temporary issues with waste management services in the area during that period.

Risk rating

How 1587 Sanchez 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, 188 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.

Building age

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

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 10.6%
Severe concern 3.6%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
