Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 3136-3138 Divisadero Street in Cow Hollow, owned by Edmond K & Debbie C Wong, was constructed in 1927 and features two stories. The property has undergone several electrical modifications since 2007, including the addition of a house meter with switches and receptacles, and kitchen outlet installations in 2014. Notably, a serious complaint was filed in February 2014 regarding unpermitted electrical work, deteriorated electrical equipment, and unsafe conditions, including concerns about multiple wires causing frequent blackouts and an accumulation of junk in the garage and service alley. This complaint, which was investigated by the Electrical Inspection Division, was marked as not active by April 2014.

In recent years, the building and its surroundings have experienced various maintenance and sanitation issues, as documented through multiple 311 calls. The most recent incidents in 2024 involved general public works requests and garbage/debris issues that were resolved. The property has faced challenges typical of the area, including a graffiti incident in 2023 (which was impacted by COVID-related enforcement suspensions), and occurrences of human/animal waste and encampments in the vicinity between 2018 and 2022. While many of these municipal service requests have been resolved, the recurring nature of some issues suggests ongoing maintenance challenges in the building's immediate environment.

Risk rating

How 3136-3138 Divisadero 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.
