Initial analysis

2139-2143 Pine Street is a three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building located in Lower Pacific Heights, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Cadbury 1 LLC. The property has undergone significant recent renovations, particularly following a March 2023 fire incident that caused damage to the third-floor roof and framing. In October 2023, permits were issued for extensive repairs including fire and water damage restoration, removal of chimneys, replacement of furnaces and water heaters, and remodeling of all three kitchens and bathrooms, with an estimated cost of $300,000. This work has continued into 2024 with additional permits for window replacements ($150,000), plumbing system upgrades, and complete electrical rewiring of all three floors, including the installation of new fire warning devices.

The building's history includes several notable events, such as a 2023 complaint regarding construction noise during permitted hours, and multiple violations in 2004 related to fire safety and plumbing systems, though these were resolved by June 2005. An earlier issue from 1998 regarding unauthorized decks connecting to a neighboring roof was addressed over time. The property has received regular maintenance attention, including a foundation underpinning project in 2010 and various interior improvements. Recent work has focused on addressing the fire damage and modernizing the building's systems, including electrical (with new subpanels installed), plumbing (new radiant heating and plumbing systems), and window replacements, with all permits currently showing as issued or in progress.

Risk rating

How 2139-2143 Pine 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

Out of 670 buildings in this neighborhood, 415 are predicted to be safer.

DBI tenant complaints (past 7 years)

Formal complaints tenants filed with DBI about this building over 7 years.

NOV rate, owner's portfolio
