Initial analysis

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 768-772 Page Street in Hayes Valley, owned by David R. Benda, has a documented history dating back to its 1911 construction. The property's most recent significant improvement was completed in 2019, when all three units received new 125-amp electrical panels, with the garage also installed on its own separate panel, replacing older zinco panels. Between 1986 and 2002, there were multiple repairs to the rear stairs, including work on posts, joists, and cross bracing, indicating ongoing maintenance attention to this critical safety feature. The building underwent reroofing in 1991, and electrical work was done in 2005 to install heater circuits, a new panel, and GFCI protections.

The property faced several safety-related violations in 2002 and 2008, primarily concerning stair repairs, fire safety equipment, and garbage storage. These violations included issues with handrails, fire extinguisher maintenance, fire proofing materials, and combustible storage, though all were ultimately abated by September 2002. A 2015 complaint regarding unauthorized construction of a larger structure behind the main building was filed but later marked as not active. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues over the years, the owner has generally addressed violations and completed required repairs, with no active violations on record as of October 2023. The most recent permitted work (2019) suggests active engagement with building systems modernization, particularly regarding electrical infrastructure.

Risk rating

How 768-772 Page 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
