Initial analysis

This two-unit residential building, located at 3148-3150 Octavia Street in the Marina district, is a 2-story flats and duplex structure built in 1925, currently owned by Ikeda Kaori A. The building has experienced several significant events over its history, with the most notable being a fire incident in May 1999 that required repairs, followed by renovation work in the rear bedroom that same month, and an address correction in August 1999. On the infrastructure maintenance front, the property underwent a reroofing project in October 2004 (permit expired) and electrical system upgrades including wiring improvements and installation of new receptacles and dishwasher in 2017, as well as a more comprehensive upgrade in 2007 that involved replacing the fuse box with a breaker panel and installing new ground rods and wire.

In recent months (2024-2025), the property has experienced recurring issues with garbage and debris on the street and sidewalk, with multiple cases reported and resolved between August and October 2024. There has also been a notable pattern of driveway blocking incidents, with four parking enforcement calls between October 2024 and January 2025, though some of these cases were invalidated due to incomplete reporting information. The most recent cases include three driveway blocking complaints in December 2024, with at least one resulting in a citation. While these parking enforcement issues and garbage complaints represent the building's most recent challenges, it's worth noting these are primarily external and street-related matters rather than direct building or tenant issues.

Risk rating

How 3148-3150 Octavia 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
58th percentile

Out of 988 buildings in this neighborhood, 415 are predicted to be safer.
