Initial analysis

The 3-unit, 4-story multi-family residential building at 771-773 Sacramento Street, owned by the Chinese Sportsmen Club Inc, was constructed in 1907 and is located in San Francisco's Financial District North neighborhood. The building's most significant recent maintenance history includes multiple sewer backup incidents between 2020-2022, with the most recent case being reported in June 2022. A series of building violations were documented in August 2005, primarily addressing safety and maintenance issues such as lead paint hazards, fire escape ladder maintenance, window repairs, and heating system requirements, though all were abated within a month. The building underwent earthquake hazard mitigation work in 1997, which appears to have been primarily focused on steel wall revisions and bolting procedures. More recent property maintenance issues include graffiti (most recently reported in November 2024), though this does not directly impact building safety or habitability.

The building has undergone routine housing inspections in 1999 and 2005, indicating regular oversight by Housing Inspection Services. Historical permits show various improvements and modifications, including an HVAC installation in 1991, though many older permits from the 1990s appear to have been canceled or expired. While there have been reports of human/animal waste and various street cleaning issues in the vicinity of the building between 2020-2022, these exterior maintenance concerns are primarily related to public spaces rather than the building itself. The only recorded fire incident was a contained cooking fire with no civilian injuries, suggesting minimal fire safety concerns.

Risk rating

How 771-773 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

Out of 145 buildings in this neighborhood, 71 are predicted to be safer.

Construction type (C)

The building's construction type on file, which affects its maintenance risk profile.

Number of floors

Building height affects maintenance complexity and is one of the size signals the model uses.
