Initial analysis

The property at 1337-1339 Greenwich Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in Russian Hill, built in 1913 and currently owned by the Phyllis E Sasaki Living Trust 199. The building has undergone significant improvements and renovations over the past few years, with major work completed in 2021-2022 including comprehensive plumbing and electrical updates for both units, installation of new furnaces, a combination boiler, and extensive remodeling of two kitchens, five and a half bathrooms, and two laundry rooms. The property features two notable outdoor improvements: a 499 square foot roof deck for exclusive use of unit 1337 and a new rear deck on the second floor, though there were multiple permit revisions and modifications to these decks throughout 2021-2022.

More recent activity includes backyard improvements planned for 2024, including landscaping, a BBQ island, and firepit. Of particular concern are recurring sewer-related issues, with four sewage backup incidents reported between July and November 2024, and a recent complaint about unauthorized bathroom remodeling work in December 2024. The building experienced a major systems upgrade in 2021-2022, including garage door replacement, new electrical systems for both units, and complete plumbing modernization. The property has a history of sidewalk parking violations reported in 2021-2022, though these were not resolved through enforcement. While the major renovation work appears to have been completed properly, the recent sewer issues and bathroom remodeling complaint suggest there may be ongoing maintenance and compliance concerns.

Risk rating

How 1337-1339 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
