Initial analysis

The six-story, 24-unit multi-family residential building at 2101 Sacramento Street in Pacific Heights, built in 1925 and currently owned by Nancy Mar Tr, has experienced several significant issues over its recent history. Most notably, there is an open fire violation as of December 2023 regarding sleeping area requirements, which remains unresolved despite previous corrective actions taken for similar violations in 2022 concerning sprinkler/standpipe systems, exit maintenance, and combustible materials. The building's maintenance history shows both improvements and concerns: a steam boiler was replaced in 2020, and a comprehensive fire alarm system upgrade was completed in 2009-2010, though multiple fire safety violations have been recorded over the years. The property has experienced several serious maintenance issues, including a major sewage incident in 2010 affecting multiple units, multiple interior surface violations related to lead paint concerns, and various problems with heat distribution, which were particularly problematic in 2000-2001. More recent complaints from 2016 indicated issues with window conditions, fire escape positioning, and elevator maintenance. The most recent fire alarm system issues were during 2022-2023, with previous violations being corrected, indicating ongoing efforts to maintain safety systems, though compliance remains inconsistent.

The building's infrastructure and systems have received attention over the years, including plumbing updates with the 2020 boiler replacement and electrical work related to fire system improvements. Historical records show earlier building improvements such as parapet reinforcement (1995) and reroofing (1996), suggesting some foundational maintenance has been performed. However, numerous 311 calls from January 2025 regarding garbage and debris, as well as recent park service area maintenance needs, indicate ongoing exterior maintenance challenges. The property has experienced several fire safety violations since 2018, all of which were corrected except for the most recent sleeping area requirement violation, suggesting attention to fire safety systems has been variable. While many past violations have been addressed through official channels, the recurrence of similar issues and the extended timeline for some violations to be corrected suggests ongoing challenges with building maintenance and safety compliance.

Risk rating

How 2101 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.
