Initial analysis

The 8-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 2701 Sacramento Street in Pacific Heights, constructed in 1959, has undergone several significant safety upgrades and improvements over the years. Most recently, in June 2023, the building received a comprehensive fire system upgrade costing $29,200, which included new sounders in sleeping areas, a fire alarm control panel, smoke detectors, manual pull stations, and low-frequency sounders, with the work being properly documented under both building and electrical permits. The building completed mandatory seismic retrofitting in 2017 as a Tier 3 soft-story wood-frame structure, strengthening its structural integrity. Previous improvements include window replacements in 2006 (30 vinyl, double-glazed windows), and fence and door reconstruction in the rear yard.

The building has experienced several fire safety-related violations and complaints, particularly in the early 2000s, including issues with fire escape ladders, fire extinguisher maintenance, and combustible storage, though all were abated by August 2011. A water leak incident in the garage was reported in 1999. More recent concerns around the property include multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding general cleaning, illegal postings, and a water main issue. While there have been various fire-related incidents recorded, such as gas leaks and a carbon monoxide incident, none resulted in civilian injuries. The building's management has demonstrated responsiveness to safety requirements, as evidenced by the recent fire system upgrades and completion of seismic retrofitting, though periodic maintenance issues and external concerns (as documented in 311 calls) continue to surface.

Risk rating

How 2701 Sacramento 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
47th percentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 510 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 55.8%
Moderate concern 30.4%
Severe concern 13.8%
