The property received substantial renovations in May 2021, including the installation of four new wood-aluminum clad windows and a front door, bathroom remodeling, kitchen upgrades, and exterior wall insulation improvements, along with associated plumbing and electrical work including a 100-amps subpanel upgrade.

The property's recent maintenance record is generally positive, with no active violations or complaints. External maintenance has also been addressed, as evidenced by recent tree maintenance and street cleaning activity recorded through 311 calls. The most recent building improvements, completed in 2021, focused on enhancing energy efficiency and updating interior spaces, suggesting ongoing investment in the property's upkeep and modernization.

Risk rating

How 1749-1753 Hyde 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.
