Initial analysis

This 2-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building located at 2707-2709 Laguna Street in Pacific Heights was constructed in 1895 and is currently owned by Salil S Pitroda Sep Prpt Re. The property has undergone several significant renovations and improvements over the years, with the most substantial work occurring between 2005-2006 when a comprehensive remodel was completed at a cost of $190,000 to address a violation complaint from 2000. This renovation included updates to the building's layout and features, such as bedrooms, bathrooms, and exterior siding, along with a major electrical upgrade completed in September 2006 that included a complete rewiring with service upgrade to 250A, installation of two meters, and numerous new electrical fixtures and circuits.

The building's history includes some concerning incidents, most notably a series of complaints in January 2000 regarding unauthorized business activities in the residential building, which were officially marked as active. The property experienced some permit compliance issues in 2006 when work was performed beyond the approved scope, specifically involving garage-related modifications. More recently, there was a report in April 2020 regarding unauthorized scaffolding installation, though this complaint is currently marked as not active. The building has had its share of maintenance issues, particularly with sewer systems, experiencing back-ups in 2008 and 2009, and some tree-related concerns in 2008-2016. The property has also faced several parking-related challenges in recent years, with multiple citations issued between 2016-2020 for vehicles blocking driveways or parking on sidewalks.

Risk rating

How 2707-2709 Laguna 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

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.
