Initial analysis

This 1907 Glen Park multi-family residential building, located at 930-932 Chenery Street, has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the past two decades, including window replacement (2019), front stair repair (2013), and reroofing (2007). The property has experienced recurring sewer issues, with documented back-up discharges from the side sewer vent in both December 2024 and August 2024, though these cases were subsequently resolved. A concerning pattern of fire safety violations has emerged, with multiple citations issued between 2019 and 2024, including violations related to emergency lighting, sprinkler systems, and fire alarm maintenance. The most recent fire violation was issued in November 2024 regarding the alarm system maintenance at the property, while previous violations for sprinkler testing/maintenance and emergency lighting repair from October 2023 were marked as abated.

Recent concerns also include tree-related issues, with reports in October 2024 regarding property damage from tree roots affecting the sidewalk and building. The building's maintenance history shows attention to basic upkeep, with permits for various improvements including window replacement in 2019 (replacing non-original aluminum windows) and necessary repairs to address dry rot in the front stairs. While the property has undergone regular maintenance and improvements, the recurring nature of the sewer issues and fire safety violations suggests ongoing challenges in these areas. The building's ownership structure is listed as the Seiwald Family 1994 Revocable Trust.

Risk rating

How 930-932 Chenery 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
46th percentile

Out of 364 buildings in this neighborhood, 197 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 permits, owner's portfolio

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

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 82.8%
Moderate concern 11.5%
Severe concern 5.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
