Initial analysis

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 143 Randall Street in Glen Park, owned by the Alice R Smith Family Trust since 2012, is a two-story structure built in 1900 with a flat and store classification. The building's permit history reveals several significant structural improvements, with the most substantial work occurring in 2007 when rear footings were upgraded and new support beams and posts were installed under a second-floor cantilever, followed by electrical upgrades including new lights, switches, and circuits. Earlier maintenance included a 1997 kitchen remodel, a 2002 kitchen cabinet replacement project, and in 1987, repairs of rotted studs and plates in the front right corner of the building.

The property has experienced recent infrastructure activity, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in 2024, including utility excavation work near gas lines in September and several incidents related to garbage and debris removal. Parking enforcement has been active at the property, with multiple citations issued for driveway blocking between April and July 2024, including recurring issues with a black Honda Fit vehicle. The most recent building-related activities involve municipal services addressing sidewalk and curb issues, with the most recent case in October 2024 involving street space service requests. While these infrastructure and parking management issues are being addressed through appropriate channels, they represent the building's most recent interaction with city services and infrastructure management.

Risk rating

How 143 Randall 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
61th percentile

Out of 364 buildings in this neighborhood, 142 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.

Property class: apartment building

Apartment building — this property classification influences expected violation rates.

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.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 80.9%
Moderate concern 15.3%
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.
