AI summary

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 2936-2938 Webster Street in Cow Hollow is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1904, currently owned by 2936-2938 Webster Street Re. The building's maintenance history shows several significant improvements over the past decades, including kitchen and bathroom remodels in 2000 and 1997, dry rot repairs to back stairs and siding in 1997, and reroofing work completed in 1996. Most recently, in October 2020, the wall heater was replaced. The building has undergone regular housing inspections, with noted inspections in 2000 and 2008, none of which resulted in ongoing violations.

The property has experienced recurring issues with parking enforcement, particularly regarding driveway blockages, with multiple citations issued between 2023 and 2024, including three cases in November 2024 alone. There have been several recent incidents involving abandoned garbage and debris outside the building, particularly concerning furniture and other loose debris, with multiple reports filed between June and October 2024. Two fire alarm incidents were recorded, though neither event involved actual fires or civilian injuries. The property's documented history suggests regular maintenance has been conducted when issues arise, though the frequency of driveway blocking incidents and recent debris problems indicates ongoing challenges with external property management.

Risk rating

How 2936-2938 Webster 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
49th percentile

Out of 861 buildings in this neighborhood, 439 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 53.0%
Moderate concern 21.5%
Severe concern 25.5%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
