Initial analysis

The property at 1322-1324 Kearny Street is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building located in Telegraph Hill, constructed in 1920 and currently owned by Sakamoto Family Revocable Trust. The building has undergone several maintenance and repair work over the years, with the most recent significant building improvement being a $4,000 project completed in 2002 that involved stair repairs, painting, and replacement of backyard concrete. A 1996 reroofing permit is on record, though its status is listed as expired.

The building experienced a notable cluster of violations and complaints in 2003, which were all addressed and abated by June 12, 2003. These issues included problems with heat and temperature control, interior surface maintenance (mold, mildew, painting needs), safety concerns (guardrails, electrical wiring), appliance repairs (defective stove pilot light), and window damage. A subsequent complaint in June 2003 reported deteriorated shower walls and damaged kitchen walls. Recently, there was one street-related incident recorded in 2021 involving human or animal waste on the public right-of-way, which was resolved by city services.

Risk rating

How 1322-1324 Kearny 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 684 buildings in this neighborhood, 294 are predicted to be safer.
