Initial analysis

The three-story, five-unit apartment building at 732-734 Sacramento Street, owned by Ko Excelsior Lp, has a history dating back to 1929. The property has undergone several maintenance projects over the years, including sidewalk repairs in 2002 and reroofing in 1998, though these permits have since expired. A significant cluster of building violations was recorded in 2011, including issues with fire safety (egress obstructions and fire extinguisher maintenance), security (inadequate self-closing devices and locking mechanisms on exterior doors), and general maintenance (interior painting requirements), all of which were resolved by July 2011. Prior to this, in 2005, violations were noted regarding fire escape maintenance and lighting conditions, while a routine inspection in 1999 showed some concerns as well.

More recently, the building experienced a sprinkler system issue in May 2024 that was corrected by July 2024. The property has also been the subject of numerous recent 311 calls (all from 2024), primarily related to street cleaning issues, including garbage and debris, an overflowing city garbage can, and graffiti on both the property's sidewalk and mailbox. While many of these service requests have been marked as "Closed Case Resolved," they suggest ongoing challenges with property maintenance in the surrounding area. The most recent service requests, including instances of human/animal waste and a mattress removal in late 2024, indicate persistent cleanliness challenges in the vicinity of the building, particularly concerning the management of street-level maintenance and waste removal.

Risk rating

How 732-734 Sacramento 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
