Initial analysis

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 2435-2437 Chestnut Street in the Marina neighborhood is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1924, currently owned by Garibaldi Shahin. The property has undergone several maintenance and improvement projects over the years, with the most recent significant work including a sewer line and house trap replacement completed in 2017, and various street space permits issued between 2007-2017. The building has a documented history of unauthorized plumbing work in April 2002, though this violation was resolved within two weeks. During the early 2000s, multiple renovation projects were attempted, including kitchen remodeling, window replacements, bathroom tiling, and garage door updates, though most of these permits expired without completion.

Recent activity at the property has primarily involved external maintenance and compliance issues, including multiple complaints about blocked driveways and waste management violations in 2023-2024. Between July 2023 and December 2024, there have been several parking enforcement actions resulting in citations for blocked driveways. The property experienced some shared space health violations and waste management issues in mid-2024, with one case being fully abated. There was also one noise complaint recorded in August 2023. A tenant buyout occurred in January 2020 for the unit at 2437 Chestnut Street, involving four tenants and a payment of $42,000. The only fire-related incident on record involved a system malfunction, with no civilian injuries reported.

Risk rating

How 2435-2437 Chestnut 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.
