Initial analysis

The single-story multi-family residential building at 784 Bay Street in Russian Hill, owned by Allyson M Washburn and built in 1926, has undergone several notable renovations and faced some significant events over its history. The most recent work was a complete kitchen remodel in Unit A in 2022, costing $20,000, which included plumbing and electrical updates, all of which were properly completed and documented. In 2008, the property experienced more substantial modifications, including bathroom renovations and furnace room ceiling repairs, though this work was complicated by fire damage and dry rot issues requiring additional repairs. The building had a routine housing inspection in 2005 that raised concerns about emergency exits and smoke detectors, though these issues were promptly addressed and abated on the same day.

More recent external issues affecting the vicinity of the building include a current pavement defect reported in October 2023 and various 311 calls throughout 2022-2023, primarily related to street maintenance, parking enforcement, and graffiti removal. A significant tenant buyout occurred nearby at 774 Bay Street in 2018, involving three tenants with a payout of $19,881. The building's permit history shows regular maintenance and improvements, with the most recent work focusing on interior updates rather than structural changes, suggesting ongoing maintenance of the property's essential systems.

Risk rating

How 782 Bay 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.
