Initial analysis

The 6-16 Whitney Street property, located in the Glen Park neighborhood, is a 2-story, 6-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900 and currently owned by the Marilyn C Schaumburg 2004 Trust. The building has undergone significant renovations and improvements over recent years, with the most substantial work occurring in 2019-2020 when UNIT #12 received extensive updates including foundation replacement, new slab installation, and the addition of new bedrooms, bathrooms, and laundry facilities, along with a complete rewiring project costing $500,000. The property has received consistent maintenance attention, with recent kitchen and bathroom remodeling projects completed in 2021 and 2022, each costing approximately $49,200-$49,500, including necessary plumbing and electrical upgrades.

Of particular note is the completion of a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2015 (Tier 3) costing $100,000, addressing structural safety requirements. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues with stairs and decks, with multiple repairs documented between 2015-2016 addressing dry rot problems and safety concerns. While there was one building violation in 2011 regarding unauthorized deck and stair construction, this was resolved within a couple of months. Recent years have seen several parking-related complaints in 2023-2024, primarily concerning sidewalk parking violations by a specific vehicle, though these are external to the building's management responsibilities. The property has undergone routine housing inspections (2008, 2016) with no noted violations, indicating regular compliance with housing safety standards.

Risk rating

How 6-16 Whitney 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 364 buildings in this neighborhood, 309 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Neighborhood location

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 52.3%
Moderate concern 34.1%
Severe concern 13.6%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
