Initial analysis

328 Hyde Street is a 3-story, 11-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1914 and currently owned by the Liefer Stahman Family Trust. The building has undergone multiple renovations over the years, with the most recent significant work being a complete re-roofing project completed in 2024 at a cost of $20,600. Between 2006 and 2010, several individual unit renovations were performed, including kitchen and bathroom remodels in units 5, 6, 3, and 9, incorporating modern efficiency features. The building has faced various maintenance and safety challenges, most recently in 2024 with multiple complaints about rusty water issues in the bathrooms, following previous concerns about water quality in 2022.

The property has a history of fire safety-related violations and complaints, particularly regarding fire escape maintenance in 2005, while more recent fire safety inspections in 2017 revealed issues with emergency lighting, signage, and sprinkler maintenance that were subsequently abated. A 2014 notice regarding mandatory soft-story retrofit compliance suggests potential earthquake safety concerns, though the status of this requirement is not currently clear. The building has experienced periodic maintenance issues, as evidenced by complaints about common area lighting and hot water in 2022, and historical concerns about boiler permits in 2013. Recent 311 calls from 2024 have primarily related to external issues such as graffiti and parking violations. The property's management has shown responsiveness to many maintenance issues, as indicated by the completion of various building permits and resolution of several violations, though some persistent issues like water quality and common area lighting remain concerning.

Risk rating

How 328 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.

Neighborhood percentile
