Initial analysis

The property at 1916-1918 Stockton Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in Telegraph Hill, owned by Sara Jane Balistreri and constructed in 1940. The building has undergone several significant improvements, with the most substantial renovations occurring in early 2006 when the kitchen received substantial upgrades including new cabinets, flooring, and electrical work, with the construction value increasing from $5,000 to $35,000. Prior to this, a reroofing project was permitted in December 2004 with an estimated cost of $7,800.

The property has experienced recurring sewer issues, with three documented sewage backup incidents between 2011 and 2016, all involving the same 4-inch sewer vent problem. The past several years have seen various neighborhood-related incidents near the property, including parking violations and street maintenance issues. Recent events include a sidewalk parking complaint in July 2024, an abandoned vehicle removal in April 2023, and various instances of illegal postings and defaced signage in 2022-2023. There were also two electrical permits issued in 2006 for interior electrical work, though one of these permits was cancelled prior to completion. The building's maintenance history suggests regular upkeep, particularly during the mid-2000s when significant improvements were made to the property's interior systems and infrastructure.

Risk rating

How 1916-1918 Stockton 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
