Initial analysis

The three-story, five-unit TIC building at 2831-2833 Webster Street in Cow Hollow, owned by Michael Reilly and constructed in 1906, has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance projects over the past decades. Recent improvements include comprehensive soundproofing work in Unit #1 (2013), window replacements in Unit 5 (2007), and multiple kitchen remodels across different units (2005-2007). The building has received proper maintenance attention with a complete reroofing project (2007) and termite repair work (1997). Recent plumbing upgrades include the installation of a gas fireplace (2016), gas pipe replacement and water heater change (2014), and other plumbing improvements (2014).

The property has experienced recurring parking-related issues in recent months, particularly between July and January 2025, with multiple reports of vehicles blocking driveways, resulting in several citations. While there have been routine fire alarms, medical assists, and smoke detector activations recorded by the fire department, none resulted in injuries or significant incidents. A notable planning matter was a variance request regarding a sixth unit, which was ultimately disapproved in 2012. The building's maintenance record shows regular upkeep and improvements, with most recent work focusing on modernizing the units and addressing safety requirements, such as maintaining fire separation with upgraded materials. A routine housing inspection in 1999 was completed without any noted ongoing concerns.

Risk rating

How 2831-2833 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.
