Initial analysis

The two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 3018-3020 Baker Street in Cow Hollow, owned by Coyne 2017 Living Trust, has a notable history of maintenance and infrastructure work dating back to its 1931 construction. The property underwent significant voluntary structural improvements in 2009, including footing and bracing upgrades to the existing rear sunroom, with a documented cost of $7,500. In 2011, a new one-inch copper water line was successfully installed from the street meter to the garage, and there are records of reroofing work from 1998, though that permit has since expired.

The most pressing recent issue affecting the property was a sewage back-up discharge from the side sewer vent in June 2024, which was promptly addressed and resolved by the PUC Sewer Operations team. The building has experienced recurring parking enforcement issues, particularly in late 2022, when there were multiple reports of sidewalk parking involving a black Audi Q5, with at least one citation issued and several other cases requiring officer intervention. More recent parking-related incidents were documented in 2023-2024, including cases of driveway blocking and a Christmas tree removal request in January 2024. While these parking issues indicate some challenges with on-street parking management in the area, they have been consistently addressed by parking enforcement authorities. The building's documented maintenance history suggests regular upkeep by ownership, with no recorded major structural or safety concerns beyond the recent sewer discharge incident.

Risk rating

How 3018-3020 Baker 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.
