Initial analysis

The two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 1721-1723 Church Street in Noe Valley, constructed in 1915 and currently owned by Edward Ryan, has undergone significant modernizations and improvements over the past decade. Most notably, in 2023, a solar photovoltaic system comprising 21 modules (approximately 7.67 kW) was successfully installed. The property underwent substantial renovations in 2012, including kitchen and bathroom remodels in both units, deck repairs, and window replacements, followed by the conversion of a two-story barn into a two-bedroom guest house. Important safety upgrades were implemented in 2013 with the installation of a comprehensive fire sprinkler system throughout the building. More recent improvements between 2018-2019 included extensive plumbing and electrical upgrades, installation of new furnaces, and bathroom additions. The building's infrastructure has been significantly enhanced with new electrical systems including three meters and subpanels, high-efficiency appliances, and comprehensive HVAC improvements.

The property has experienced minor external maintenance issues as evidenced by 311 calls, including reports of graffiti (2019), medical waste (2019), and a missing side sewer vent cover (2015), all of which were resolved. Recent 311 calls in 2023-2024 primarily relate to municipal services and street cleaning rather than building-specific issues. Planning records indicate proper procedural compliance for major improvements, including a variance request that was approved to facilitate the conversion of the barn structure. The property appears to be well-maintained overall, with regular updates to comply with modern safety standards and improve energy efficiency.

Risk rating

How 1721-1723 Church 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, 282 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.

Neighborhood location

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

Construction spend, owner's portfolio

Estimated permit value across all of this owner's buildings.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 84.1%
Moderate concern 11.4%
Severe concern 4.5%
