Initial analysis

The five-story, 39-unit multi-family residential building at 2085 Sacramento Street in Pacific Heights, owned by Jeffrey Litke Revocable Property Trust, was constructed in 1924 and has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the past year. Most notably, there are active fire safety violations from 2023-2024 related to sleeping area requirements and a sprinkler service requirement that remains open as of now. Recent tenant complaints include concerns about construction practices in 2022-2023, with residents reporting issues related to dust, noise, and work being performed without proper permits during exterior restoration. A recurring theme in tenant complaints pertains to window issues, with reports of malfunctioning windows and water intrusion problems dating back to 2020. The building's history includes a cluster of violations from December 2007 that were resolved by May 2008, addressing various security, fire, and plumbing concerns, and a complete reroofing project from 2007 costing approximately $16,716. Additionally, there have been multiple fire incidents recorded, including carbon monoxide and gas leak incidents, though none resulted in civilian injuries. The building has also experienced elevator-related emergencies requiring fire department response, highlighting ongoing elevator system challenges. Recent building permit activity from 2020 suggests continued maintenance work, though with at least one recent complaint about unpermitted work involving a portable toilet on the property.

Risk rating

How 2085 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
