AI summary

The Hemmeter Family Trust property at 844-848 Green Street in San Francisco's Russian Hill neighborhood is a three-story, three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1916. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, including a $15,800 repair of rear winder stairs in 2022, re-roofing work in 2013 (cost: $13,200), and substantial renovations in 2001 involving kitchen reconfigurations, bathroom modifications, and electrical/plumbing updates (total cost: $75,000). Notably, the building experienced compliance issues in 2001 when it was found to be undergoing unauthorized unit merger work, resulting in multiple Notices of Violation; however, these violations were eventually abated by December 2001. The building has had routine housing inspections in 2000, 2003, and 2006, all of which were resolved without any noted ongoing issues.

Recent maintenance and safety records show the property has had some ongoing infrastructure and environmental concerns, particularly related to tree maintenance. In 2023, there were reports of tree root damage to sidewalks, and a damaged tree was inspected in January 2023, though it was determined not to pose an immediate safety hazard. The property has also had several utility-related issues, including a resolved side sewer vent cover concern in 2017 and a utility excavation matter in December 2022. While the building had a fire department response for a false alarm, there were no injuries or significant incidents recorded. The property has maintained active management of its permits and violations, with most recent maintenance focusing on regulatory compliance and infrastructure upkeep rather than major renovations or unit modifications.

Risk rating

How 844-848 Green 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.
