Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 35-37 White Street in Russian Hill, owned by the Jyl Trust, was constructed in 1909 and is classified as a 2-story flats/duplex structure. The property has experienced several significant issues over its history, most notably concerning an unauthorized roof deck construction in 2005 that led to multiple Notices of Violation and subsequent abatement proceedings. The deck issue was ultimately resolved in 2010 through proper permitting and final inspections, though it required considerable enforcement action to address.

More recently, there are concerns regarding an allegedly unauthorized garage-level unit reported in April 2023, described as having multiple frequent tenants with changing occupancy patterns, though this complaint is listed as not active. The building has undergone various maintenance improvements over the years, including roof repairs in 1989, wall reinforcement in 1993, and vinyl siding installation in 1995. The property has experienced some maintenance challenges, as evidenced by a rodent/insect infestation complaint in 2018 and multiple pavement defect reports near the property between 2020-2022. There have been several parking-related incidents near the building, including blocked driveways, and recent requests for building inspection services, most notably a general building inspection request in January 2024.

Risk rating

How 35-37 White 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.
