Initial analysis

The Schefsky Family Revocable Trust owns this two-unit (flats/duplex) multi-family residential building located at 63-65 Casa Way in the Marina neighborhood. Built in 1926, this two-story structure is currently undergoing significant renovations, with active permits showing major work being done in 2024. The most substantial ongoing project involves expanding the second-floor unit down to the first floor, adding new bathrooms, a family room, and an office, with permits issued in March and August 2024 totaling $290,000 in construction costs. This work includes structural modifications for stairs and alterations to rear and side windows. Additional recent improvements include a December 2023 permit for second-floor bathroom conversions and renovations ($100,000), and comprehensive electrical work planned for January 2024, including rewiring the entire house and installing new electrical systems. The property has also received plumbing upgrades in 2024, including work for multiple bathrooms, laundry facilities, and kitchen fixtures.

The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, including a 2018 kitchen renovation with cabinet replacement, new appliances, and laundry room relocation ($32,000). Earlier improvements include a 2009 partial structural upgrade with shear walls, 2008 reroofing, and the installation of solar panels. While there have been some infrastructure issues noted in 311 calls, including a sewage backup in 2018 and various street-related concerns, these appear to be addressed promptly. Recent construction activity and system upgrades suggest proactive maintenance and modernization of the property, with no reported safety violations or persistent resident experience issues.

Risk rating

How 63-65 Casa Way'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.
