Initial analysis

10 Reno Place is a three-story, seven-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1907 and currently owned by Ak 10 Reno LLC. The property has undergone significant recent improvements, with the most notable being a comprehensive renovation in 2020 that included major unit remodels in Apartments 2 and 7, window replacements, concrete work, and the installation of hydronic radiant heating systems. The building's infrastructure has received substantial upgrades, including the replacement of the fire alarm control panel in 2024 ($11,385) and multiple boiler installations between 2023 and 2024, with the most recent being a wall-hung boiler system. Historical records show recurring fire system-related issues, with several violations and complaints between 2005-2016 regarding alarm system maintenance and certification. The building has had multiple renovation projects over the years, including unauthorized work in 2000/2002 related to kitchen cabinets, bath fixtures, and structural modifications, though these have since been addressed.

The property's maintenance history indicates ongoing attention to systems upkeep, though there have been some procedural issues, such as expired permits in 2020 and 2021 that required subsequent renewal or final inspection. The building faced several complaints regarding construction debris management in 2019 and paint containment issues in 2018, all of which were eventually resolved. A notable zoning-related matter was recorded regarding an unauthorized height increase of approximately 5 feet for a parapet that purportedly blocked light and views for a neighboring property. The building's heating and plumbing systems have seen extensive updates, including the installation of four Noritz mod-con tankless combi units in 2021 to serve all apartments, demonstrating significant commitment to modernizing essential building systems. The property has maintained active compliance with most regulatory requirements, with historical violations showing a pattern of prompt correction once identified, primarily related to fire safety systems and periodic maintenance needs.

Risk rating

How 10 Reno Pl'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, 575 are predicted to be safer.
