Initial analysis

The 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 33-35 Bonita Street in Russian Hill, owned by Karen Lee Walker Survivors, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1907. The most substantial recent renovation occurred in 2012, costing $40,000, which included window replacement, gas and water rerouting, heating system upgrades, and door improvements. This was preceded by major work in 2007 valued at $150,000, addressing porch stairs, ceiling repairs, smoke detector installation, and complete interior painting. The building's systems have been regularly maintained, with records showing furnace and HVAC upgrades in 2012 and 2008, as well as electrical system improvements including new wiring, sub-panel installation, and circuit work.

Historical maintenance records reveal earlier improvements including kitchen renovations in 1993 and multiple roofing projects in the 1990s and 2000s. A building code complaint was filed and resolved in October 2007 regarding newly installed stairs that were allegedly not up to code, though this issue was quickly addressed. The property has experienced various infrastructure challenges in recent years, including a damaged sidewalk in 2014 that required attention, though most recent 311 calls primarily relate to standard urban issues such as parking violations and tree maintenance requests. The building's permit and maintenance history demonstrates regular upkeep and modernization efforts, with all major recent works having been completed successfully.

Risk rating

How 33-35 Bonita 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.
