Initial analysis

The property at 3541-3543 Divisadero Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Marina neighborhood, built in 1927 and currently owned by the Cathi Vogel Mpm Trust. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most recent major work being the replacement of the sewer line from the foundation to house trap completed in January 2025. In late 2019, the property was upgraded with a solar panel system consisting of 10 roof-mounted PV modules, demonstrating a commitment to sustainable energy. The building received substantial electrical system improvements in 2004, including a complete rewiring of the second story with kitchen and bathroom renovations, installation of a 200-amp underground electrical service, and a new house meter and panel. Earlier improvements include comprehensive interior remodeling work in 2004 that involved kitchen cabinet replacement, appliance upgrades, and bathroom modifications valued at $84,000, while historical records show termite extermination work in 1997 and reroofing in 1991.

The property's maintenance history indicates proper upkeep and modernization efforts by the ownership, particularly in addressing infrastructure and energy efficiency. There have been two 311 calls on record: one in July 2024 concerning street cleaning related to human waste, and another in February 2021 regarding a sidewalk parking violation, neither of which directly reflect on the building's condition or management. The extensive renovation work performed in 2004, including electrical upgrades, plumbing improvements, and bathroom modifications, suggests significant investment in the property's infrastructure and living spaces, while the recent addition of solar panels indicates ongoing maintenance and modernization efforts.

Risk rating

How 3541-3543 Divisadero St's risk score is calculated
