Initial analysis

The property at 973-975 Duncan Street in Diamond Heights is a two-unit, three-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1962, currently owned by Timothy R Wolfred 2008 Revo. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and infrastructure upgrades over the past two decades, including a substantial $47,500 reroofing project completed in 2020, and multiple water heater replacements between 2010 and 2016. Historical records show recurring issues with water damage and deck maintenance between 2002-2004, including repairs to dry rot-affected areas and water-damaged exterior siding. The building's mechanical systems have been regularly updated, with furnace replacements documented in both 2010 and 2013.

Recent developments warrant attention, particularly a sleeping area requirement violation issued in January 2024, and a history of sewer-related issues with documented incidents in 2023, 2021, and as far back as 2010, suggesting ongoing municipal infrastructure challenges in the vicinity. The property has also experienced occasional maintenance issues such as catch basin maintenance in January 2023 and various other municipal service calls. While the building has maintained compliance with most fire safety requirements, with the 2019 alarm systems issue being promptly corrected, the recent violation indicates a potential area of concern. The property has a relatively consistent maintenance record, with regular attention paid to both structural and system upgrades, though the frequency of sewer-related incidents suggests this remains an ongoing challenge for the building and surrounding area.

Risk rating

How 973-975 Duncan 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
88th percentile

Out of 17 buildings in this neighborhood, 2 are predicted to be safer.

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.
