Initial analysis

The property at 1935-1937 Greenwich Street in Cow Hollow is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1908 and currently owned by John Nguyen. The building has undergone significant renovations and improvements over the past decade, most notably a major remodel in 2020 costing $310,000 that included window replacements, exterior siding updates, bathroom additions, and system upgrades. Recent work in 2023 included electrical system upgrades with new panels, complete re-plumbing of waste and water lines, new HVAC ducting, and reroofing ($18,000). The property has also seen several withdrawn permit applications for fire sprinkler system installations in 2022 and 2023.

The building's recent history includes multiple maintenance and improvement projects, with completed work including trenchless sewer replacement (2014), various electrical upgrades, and comprehensive plumbing renovations. However, there have been some resident concerns noted, particularly regarding construction-related issues including parking enforcement complaints in 2023 and noise complaints in 2021. The property has experienced a few infrastructure challenges, including a recent sewage backup incident in October 2024. The most recent building modifications, completed in 2024, involved window material updates and handrail adjustments. While the building's systems have been extensively upgraded in recent years, including EV charging infrastructure installation, residents have occasionally reported construction-related disturbances and concerns over parking enforcement.

Risk rating

How 1935-1937 Greenwich 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
42th percentile

Out of 861 buildings in this neighborhood, 499 are predicted to be safer.
