Initial analysis

The property at 332-334 Spruce Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in Presidio Heights, built in 1900 and currently owned by Philip & Ella Miyamoto since 2006. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with the most recent being a $15,000 bathroom remodel on the second floor completed in 2021, which included combining existing facilities into a full bathroom with new fixtures and vanity. Prior major renovations include a 2007 kitchen remodel in unit 334, window replacements in 2004 (13 windows) and 2010 (in-kind side yard fence), and the replacement of a dry-rotted rear stair in 2002, which served as a second means of egress.

The building's maintenance record shows regular upkeep of essential systems, including a house trap exchange in 2014, though there's an expired garage door operator permit from 2008 that should be noted for completeness. The property has experienced some infrastructure challenges in the surrounding area, particularly in 2016 when there were multiple reports of pavement defects on Spruce Street, with seven separate complaints recorded between May and August of that year. However, these were street-related issues rather than building-specific problems. The only recorded fire incidents at the address were for public service assistance and emergency medical services, neither of which involved civilian injuries and do not appear to be related to the building's condition or safety.

Risk rating

How 332-334 Spruce 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
88th percentile

Out of 181 buildings in this neighborhood, 22 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.

Building age

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

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 85.7%
Moderate concern 10.5%
Severe concern 3.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
