Initial analysis

The property at 3236-3238 Sacramento Street is a two-story multi-family residential building with three units, constructed in 1900, and is currently owned by the Wendy Springer Teich Trust. The building has undergone numerous renovations and modifications over the years, with the most recent significant changes occurring in 2024, including the installation of an 8-foot iron security fence and gate, and the conversion of first-floor commercial space into a family/media room to extend residential use. Between 2018-2019, substantial bathroom and window improvements were made, including a complete bathroom remodeling project on the second floor and replacement of front and back windows with aluminum-clad double-hung windows. The building underwent several system upgrades, including electrical rewiring, plumbing improvements, and kitchen remodels in 2004.

The property has experienced some compliance issues in recent years, most notably in 2018 when there were allegations of unauthorized conversion of office space to short-term rentals (Airbnb) during the period when offices were allegedly converted into supplementary dwelling units. This situation, along with unpermitted plumbing work and occupancy changes, resulted in multiple investigations, though the violations were eventually abated. The building has also generated several fire complaints over the years, primarily related to shared spaces, alarm systems, and combustible materials, with most issues being promptly corrected. Three documented gas-related incidents (leaks) occurred in the building, though none resulted in civilian injuries. Recent 311 calls (2023-2024) mostly pertain to external matters such as street cleaning and transportation services, with only one shared spaces violation specifically related to the property.

Risk rating

How 3236-3238 Sacramento 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
58th percentile

Out of 963 buildings in this neighborhood, 404 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Property class: apartment building

Apartment building — this property classification influences expected violation rates.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 61.0%
Moderate concern 28.3%
Severe concern 10.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
