Presidio Heights, SF 94118 1010014 15 units · 2 fl · 1989

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years, but our model still flags a rising risk of maintenance problems in the next 12 months. That forecast comes from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area, not from this building's own record — treat it as a reason to ask questions, not as evidence of a problem. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Rent & eviction protection

Statewide backstop · AB 1482

California Tenant Protection Act of 2019

Even when a building isn't covered by local rent stabilization, the statewide Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482) may still apply. It caps annual rent increases and requires the landlord to state a legal reason to end most tenancies.

15+ years since occupancy
Built 1989
Annual rent increase cap
5% + CPI, max 10%
Just-cause eviction
After 12 months
May be covered by AB 1482. The building is old enough for the statewide rent cap (5% + regional CPI, capped at 10% per year) and just-cause protection after 12 months of tenancy.

AB 1482 does not apply to single-family homes and condos unless owned by a corporation, REIT, or an LLC with a corporate member; to owner-occupied duplexes; or to deed-restricted affordable housing. The Act is in effect until January 1, 2030. Not legal advice — see the California landlord–tenant guide.

Initial analysis

The property at 3562-3570 Sacramento Street is a two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Presidio Heights neighborhood, featuring 15 units and constructed in 1989. The building has experienced several significant maintenance and safety-related events over its history, with the most recent being multiple fire safety issues in 2024 involving blocked exits and fire extinguishers, though these conditions were corrected within ten days. The building underwent substantial improvements in 2020-2021, including the installation of a fire alarm system and electrical upgrades, as well as healthcare-related modifications in Unit 303. Historical records show a pattern of fire safety concerns, particularly in 2003 when multiple violations were recorded regarding egress obstructions, combustible storage, fire proofing, and fire extinguisher requirements - though these were all abated by March 2013.

Earlier maintenance issues included a leaky roof in 2000, and problems with the intercom and garage systems in 1997. The building's fire incident history shows three false alarms or minor incidents (including a cooking fire and combustible gas condition), all without civilian injuries. Recent concerns have primarily focused on fire safety systems, with violations for alarm systems, exits, and fire extinguishers recorded in 2017, 2021, and most recently in 2024. The property has maintained regular inspections and compliance checks, with most violations being promptly addressed, including significant upgrading of fire safety systems to meet current codes. While the building has experienced recurring issues with fire safety compliance over its history, recent years show efforts to systematically address these concerns through official permits and corrections.

Risk rating

How 3562-3570 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

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
8thpercentile

Out of 181 buildings in this neighborhood, 167 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.

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.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Owner's portfolio size

Number of SF parcels this owner is registered on — larger portfolios have distinct risk patterns.
