Initial analysis

The two-unit, single-story multi-family residential building at 2849 Greenwich Street in Cow Hollow, owned by Wakileh Revocable Lvg Tr, has a construction history dating back to 1906. The property has undergone several significant improvements and repairs over the years, with the most notable work occurring in the early 1990s, including a horizontal addition, garage floor replacement, and the addition of an interior stair connection to the basement. Major renovations during this period involved kitchen modifications and window upgrades, with aluminum window installation completed in 1986. A critical infrastructure issue emerged in 2009 when the building experienced sewer line problems, resulting in multiple complaints about leakage into neighboring property (2845 Greenwich) that posed health hazards; these were promptly addressed with repairs completed by February 17, 2009.

The building's maintenance record shows attention to essential systems, including a roof replacement in 1994 and successful resolution of the 2009 plumbing violation. More recent history includes typical urban maintenance issues such as pavement and sidewalk concerns in 2013 and 2019, though these were found not to be hazardous. A 2004 complaint regarding unauthorized commercial space remodeling was addressed within a week. The property has maintained an active permit record, with the most recent permits dating back to the 1990s, suggesting no major alterations or expansion projects have been undertaken in recent years. The building's documented history shows proper response to urgent maintenance issues, particularly regarding the critical sewer line repairs in 2009, which were executed under permit PP20090220373.

Risk rating

How 2849 Greenwich 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

Out of 861 buildings in this neighborhood, 181 are predicted to be safer.
