Initial analysis

The 6-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 876-886 Greenwich Street in Russian Hill, constructed in 1909 and currently owned by Greenwich Land LLC, has undergone several significant updates and faced various maintenance challenges over the years. In 2015, a notable issue of mold was reported in unit 878's bedroom and closet, attributed to a ceiling leak from the above unit, marking one of the more serious maintenance concerns in recent history. Prior to that, in 2011, there was a hazardous electrical situation involving service drop conductors near an openable window, though this was abated the following day. The building underwent substantial improvements in 2006, including a comprehensive electrical upgrade that involved installing new sub-panels for each unit, rewiring kitchens and bathrooms, and a cosmetic kitchen and bathroom remodel across multiple units costing $80,000. A concerning incident occurred in 2009 when a wall heater in the hallway was shut down by PG&E due to carbon monoxide fumes, though this was promptly addressed within a day. More recently, the building has experienced typical urban maintenance issues, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in 2020-2023 related to street cleaning, parking violations, and service requests, though none of these indicate any significant building-specific concerns. The most recent documented building-related permit activity was a street space permit issued in 2015, representing minimal recent structural or systems modifications. While the property has had its share of maintenance issues, particularly related to electrical systems and ventilation, many of these have been addressed promptly, and significant upgrades were completed in 2006 that modernized critical building systems.

The property has maintained compliance with routine inspections, though several permits from 2005 related to additional house numbers were issued, and an electrical permit from 2006 for extensive electrical work has expired. A minor incident involving outside rubbish occurred, but no civilian injuries were reported. The building's maintenance history suggests regular upkeep has generally been performed, with most issues being addressed promptly through appropriate channels, though the relative age of the building and its systems (114 years old) means ongoing maintenance requirements should be anticipated.

Risk rating

How 876-886 Greenwich 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

Out of 1133 buildings in this neighborhood, 578 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building permits, owner's portfolio

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

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 38.6%
Moderate concern 13.4%
Severe concern 48.0%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
